Book Description:
If
you thought Six of One: A Tudor Riff was the most fun you could have with your
nightdress on, wait until you see what Seven Will Out: A Renaissance Revel has in store. Get ready for one 'ruff' night!
Tudorphile Dolly thought that the
night she spent on an astral plane with Henry VIII's six wives, learning their
heretofore unknown secrets, was a one-time thing. Not so!
In Seven Will Out, Dolly finds herself back in the ether with the women
of later Tudor times: Elizabeth I,
‘Bloody’ Mary, Bess of Hardwick, Mary, Queen of Scots, and Anne Hathaway
Shakespeare, to name a few. They too
have secrets that will turn history on its head, and comic sass that will keep
you laughing.
You've read all of the
traditional, serious and romantic takes on the legendary Tudors. Why not try your Tudors with a new and
different twist?
About
the Author:
JoAnn Spears couldn’t decide
whether to major in English or History in college. Life stepped in, and she
wound up with a Master’s Degree in Nursing instead. A twenty-five year nursing
career didn’t extinguish that early interest in books and history-especially
Tudor history. It did, however, stoke a decidedly gallows sense of humor.
Eventually, JoAnn read just about
every spin there was on the stories of Henry VIII and the extended Tudor
family. Every spin, that is, except the one with the gallows humor. The Tudors
certainly qualified for it, but it just wasn’t out there. JoAnn decided that with
gallows humor to spare, she would do her best to remedy the Tudor comedy gap. A
little inspiration from the classic “Wizard of Oz” showed her the way to go,
and “Six of One”, a new kind of Tudor novel, was born.
JoAnn thought “Six of One”, her
story about Henry VIII’s six wives, would be an only literary child. Then, two
years after its birth, she was caught by surprise with the idea for a sequel.
In October, 2015, “Seven Will Out” made its debut and bought the latter-day
Tudors into the comedy mix.
JoAnn enjoys writing but
maintains her nursing license because a) you never stop being a nurse and b)
her son thinks she should be sensible and not quit her day job. She also enjoys
life in the beautiful mountains of northeast Tennessee, where she gardens, embroiders
antique reproduction samplers, and teaches yoga in her Methodist church
basement. JoAnn shares her home with three cats and the works of Jane Austen,
Barbara Pym, Louisa May Alcott, and of course, Alison Weir.
