Becoming Anne by Dr Owen Emmerson and Kate McCaffrey I am reccomending this book because I recently got the pleasure of meeting the authors of this book, and they highlighted the importance of Anne Boleyns upbringing. When thinking of Anne Boleyn, we only think of her once Henry VIII has taken interest in her. However, Anne became the woman she was because of influential figures, cultures and politics. The book highlights how Anne became so outspoken, and lets be frank wilful to a T!

Hello and greetings!  My name is Jessica Faulkner and my persona is Unholytudor! For several years, I have been posting on Instagram historical edits, and I have slowly moved towards Tiktok and Twitter, which is under the name Unholytudor. I also make historical wooden decorations to hang around the house, which I sell on my Etsy, also under the name Unholytudor. My interests are Tudor history, but I do enjoy local history too. I enjoy crafting and painting, I prefer to paint on canvases, but towards Christmas, the wooden circles come out! I love animals, I have 3 dogs so plenty of fun to have around! I love to read, I have plenty of books, probably too many, but then again you can never have too many! I love visiting museums and old houses.  I currently am working on doing a talk at Stanley Palace on the 3rd of December, in which I will be discussing Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire. I am ready to hire for talks on Tudor history! Next year I am hoping to write a book...
