Once again the preview image doesn't come through with the post link. I have no idea why sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. Here's what was supposed to go up with the link.

Not the best rendering of her likeness, but it's the thought that counts. Happy Birthday, my Queen. (7 Sept 1533) #Shakespeare #EarlofOxford #QueenElizabethI #birthday

You mean the sidebar? It shows up on the right side of every page, unless you're on a vertical screen when it follows below the post/s. The entry looks like this (although the links obv don't work in this screencap). Does this help? Heaven forfend you can't get there when you want to.

Mary Tudor’s submission to her father King Henry took place at King’s Place in Hackney. I lived there years later, editing my plays for the future. It was my last home.

I updated an old poem by Ovid that I first translated when I was a teenager (don’t let Uncle Arthur fool you). It’s at a bunch of Amazons, with links and details in the blog post. So new the ink's still wet.
