First off, some Historical Tapestry related news!
Don't miss our current giveaway of a set of Instant History Expert DVDs. There are a variety of topics covered in the pack. Find out more here.
Secondly, we are very pleased to announced that we have made it to the shortlist for the Best Historical Fiction blog for Book Blogger Appreciation Week. It's going to be a very tough category to win because I know that I am a huge fan of both Meghan's blog, Medieval Bookworm, and of Allie's blog, Hist-Fic Chick.
Now onto other interesting pieces of information!
Jenny from Jenny Loves to Read is having a 151 Followers contest, and there are a number of historical fiction novels among the prizes! And the contest is open to international entrants as well! Thanks Jenny!
I love reading the books by Susan Holloway Scott which are set predominantly in the courts of Charles II. To celebrate the release of The Countess and the King, Amy from Passages to the Past is giving away all 5 of Susan's books! All 5! If I didn't already own them, and if I lived in the right country I would be entering this prize draw!
This was posted about a couple of weeks ago, but hopefully you will still be able to get a spot if you are interested! I know I am tempted by a Tudor queens of England tour. All the details are available at EverythingTudor.com
