White Bear Red Rose - OFFICIAL COVER
I am so excited to finally reveal to you all the official cover for the soon-to-be-published version of White Bear Red Rose! Of course, I had to commission the ever-talented @eve-to-adam to draw and design the cover as she’s illustrated so much of this story before - it only felt right! (By the way, she’s open for commissions if anyone else is so inclined to receive a gorgeous piece of art from her!)
I’m aiming for a summer 2025 release as I am currently deep in developmental edits, courtesy of my lovely editor Nat from @foxandrabbitpress! My followers and mutuals on tumblr are probably well aware now of how WBRR came to be, but I’ve also made a post all about this on my website. I’d recommend subscribing there to receive email updates when I post, but of course I will be updating tumblr as and when!
Once again, thank you to everyone who has supported me so far and especially those who read and loved WBRR in its AO3 days - none of this would be possible without you all!
– juana i de trastámara ; infanta of spain, duchess consort of burgundy, queen of castile, aragon, valencia, mallorca, navarre, naples, sicily, sardinia and countess of barcelona was born on this day, 6th of november of 1479
WBRR has now been removed from AO3!
That hurt a bit, I can't lie, but onwards and upwards! Thank you to everyone who has read WBRR so far, I hope you'll enjoy the published version when it comes out (there WILL be some new chapters in there by the way 👀👀👀)
Watch this space because I'll be doing the official cover reveal next week Friday!

TUDOR WEEK 2024
Day 6: Favorite Tudor Couple - Elizabeth of York and Henry VII
The couple’s early years together may have been challenging, for Henry had to overcome his suspicions of his Yorkist bride and deal with her dangerous relations. Yet she clearly left him in no doubt as to where her loyalties lay. As time passed, he clearly grew to love, trust and respect her, and they seem to have become emotionally close. There survives good evidence that she loved him, and a moving account of how they comforted each other when their eldest son, Arthur, died. -- Alison Weir, Elizabeth of York: The First Tudor Queen/Elizabeth of York: A Tudor Queen and Her World

TUDOR WEEK 2024
Day 5 - Friday, 18th of October: Favourite Tudor Iconography - Catherine of Aragon's Pomegranate
But although she was almost fourteen by the time she saw the golden walls of Granada again, the city was clearly very important to Katherine. When she left her homeland to marry abroad, she had to choose a personal badge. She chose the pomegranate. She never said why. Yet while she probably had many reasons for her choice, we have a clue to one of them: the Spanish word for pomegranate is “granada.” -- Sister Queens: The Noble, Tragic Lives of Katherine of Aragon and Juana, Queen of Castila by Julia Fox

TUDORWEEK2024 - DAY THREE: Best Tudor What If?
What if all of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York's children survived?
It shows Henry VII and Elizabeth of York united by an angel. Their children are shown to either side, the sons on the left behind their father and the daughters on the right behind their mother. Of the princes, only Henry was alive at the time the painting was made (c.1503-9); Edmund died aged 1 and Arthur died in 1502. Elizabeth of York died in 1503 following the birth of Princess Catherine, who only lived for a few hours. The eldest two princesses were alive, but Mary died very young. These figures thereby symbolise the progeny of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York and symbolise the new Tudor dynasty, rather than functioning as realistic portraits. The King and Queen kneel at prayer desks on which Henry VII has a prayer book, orb and sceptre, and Elizabeth of York has a prayer book. - Per description of the artistic work entitled 'The Family of Henry VII with St George and the Dragon c. 1503-9'.
