There is something special about reading/hearing that someone enjoyed your work. There are plenty of ways to support authors even if you don't buy/borrow a book. Reviews really help or even a rating and you could make an authors day!

Amy McElroy @amymcelroy.bsky.social · 01/03/2026

It's March!!! That means my next book, Desiderius Erasmus is out this month! If you're outside the UK and don't want to wait for later publication date I recommend ordering from Blackwells. Thank you to everyone who has preordered so far, it really does help authors!

The first review of one of my books in Mexico! If you use the .com version of Amazon, Mary Tudor is now just $2.54 for hardback. If you're in the UK it is still cheaper than the UK site even with additional postage cost. No idea how long it will last! a.co/d/09J6ByhQ

Can't believe it's 3 years since my 1st book published! Thank you to all who have supported me. Educating the Tudors will remain an important part of my life, I never dreamed of writing a book, & I'm proud of this. Thanks to @penandswordbooks.bsky.social for giving me a chance.

Last week I visited St Lawrence Jewry in London. I was excited to see one specific name on the board of vicars of the church. For anyone wondering, it was this guy, William Grocyn. He is one of a number I'm currently writing about & was a friend to Thomas More & Erasmus.
