Writing the next book in my Tudor Bastard series is proving to be both great fun and also irksome. So many fun events happening and only one MC to explore them!

As one legend lays down his sword, another picks up his axe.
Bernard Cornwell is a massive influence on me as a writer and his Sharpe series is my favourite.
As Sharpe retires my MC Roland is just about to enter the fray. A Bastard’s Bosworth coming this December!

A great walk up the hill yesterday being buffeted and battered by the wind. We made it to the top! Hope to do another route today.

The last harvest from the children’s mad bed. They sowed whatever they wanted however they wanted. Carrots and beetroot’s all jumbled together. Marvelous.

Good morning and a beautiful start to the week ahead.

I don’t use AI art for my novels.
I shamelessly exploit my very talented brother in law instead.
As you can see he is bloody good.

My debut novel is coming out this December and I am most excited.
I’m a bit of a sleepy account on Bluesky, I struggle with all the hashtags but I hear such great things about this place.
You may like it, if you like Tudor knights, coming of age, intrigue and Bernard Cornwell style battles. #debut

I feel I should probably introduce myself!
I’m TJ, I write historical fiction with blades and blood and I also write fantasy with Pegasus and teacups.
I’m also a musician, D&D DM and cook but there are only so many things that fit on the page!

I’ve come back to Bluesky and found it has been growing untended like a gorgeous garden hidden behind a locked gate.
Remind me…how does this all work again?
I shall update tonight with some writing stats and go from there I think! 🤔

I loved my holiday but it is GOOD to be home.
Looking forward to picking up the pen again. Or more likely tapping the keyboard!

I posted this a while back for 1 minute then bottled it but I’m going to bite the bullet.
I am going to self-publish my first book.
There we go. I’ve said it.
A Bastard’s Bosworth, the story of the forgotten Tudor, is coming soon… and I can’t be more bloody excited.

Readers of historical action adventure I have two questions for you:
1. Are you here?
2. Would you like to read about a forgotten member of the Tudor family dodging assassins, assaulting castles and killing knights?
If so I may have something coming out soon for you!

Fellow authors,
I am sure I’m not the only one tempted to be cross genre, particularly if you self publish.
Would anyone recommend it? What are the pitfalls/benefits?
I’ve discovered a new genre I love and I am tempted to try and publish under the same name.

Oh my goodness this cosy fantasy thing just keeps getting better!
It is like I have discovered that there is a single secret flavour prevalent in every single dish I have ever enjoyed eating. Cosy fantasy is the umame of writing for me. Even in my historical fiction it lurks like a delicious spice.

I am currently finishing the final edit of A Bastard’s Bosworth, the first in my Tudor Bastard series.
The next HistFic is going to be… A Bastard’s Progress. Assassination attempts, pageantry, hunting, manhunts, hangings, battles, traitors it’s got it all! If I can just keep focused!

What’s the next Hist Fic on my TBR?
If I’m honesty I’ve been really enjoying Legends and Lattes as my first foray into cosy fantasy!
I like to read a variety of genres, I like to write a variety of genres. All of it makes me a better writer….
But I do need to read Simon Scarrow!
