geeking out on shakespeare's histories

Ai, yes, I read The White Queen and threw it at the wall. It made me very angry. ;) For me it's just as bad because I've written a book about these women (an academic book, so not very widely read) and although I don't mind a bit of dramatic license (don't even start me on Shakespeare's chronology), Gregory's doesn't even make the story more interesting! Argh!

I saw Virgin Widow on Amazon the other day. I'm trying to figure out how on earth a person writes Richard/Anne fluff...

Oh, Warwick is absolutely fascinating. I read a very good biography of him a few years ago by I want to say A.J. Pollard. It's truly amazing how much he managed to get away with! And, if you don't mind a bit of self-promotion, I've written a few stories that are either Warwick-centric or where he plays a fairly major role.

Ne vile velis (http://archiveofourown.org/collections/yuletide2009/works/38522) (15th Century RPF) - This, he knew, was a boy who could be King. And he, Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, was the idol of a King.

The Bear and the Shooting Star (http://archiveofourown.org/works/113285) (2 and 3 Henry VI, PG) - John de Vere learns lessons in kingmaking and treason from the best.

I'm also writing a massive Shakespeare histories AU with angevin2 where Warwick figures prominently, but I don't know if that's your thing. :)
