The weather is changing, the leaves are falling, and everyone everywhere in the UK is selling their products covered in that most American of imports, pumpkin spice. Happily, I love pumpkin spiced stuff. Take Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte. I can't stand Starbucks and their coffee is unworthy of being called coffee, but that PSL. Oooof.
Anyway, point is, it's getting colder and darker, and we're having to stay in more as the nights draw in. Which means it's probably a good idea to host another Q&A, especially since I now have super speed brand spanking new Internet which means it shouldn't take three days to upload a video like previously.
So comment below with your questions and I'll try my best to answer. As before, I'm thinking Princes in the Tower, Henry VII, Beauforts, writing history, Vera the cat, dragons, whatever. As a rule, a bad question is one I need to spend time researching. This is a bit of fun not homework!

Oh. And buy my books.
Would you be able to share a little about your experience of publishing history books, and any ways you’ve used your Substack to promote you books? I’ve seen this a little in action with your Sons of Prophecy release, but I’d love to hear any thought processes or behind-the-scenes anecdotes. Thanks!
Hi, Nathen. I have finally gotten around to watching the 1972 BBC The Shadow of the Tower. I was wondering what you thought about James Maxwell’s portrayal of Henry VII. I am about episode 6 and found that after 4 episodes setting up and doing Lambert Simnel and the Battle of Stoke there is a fascinating episode about a fictional encounter between Henry and a Lollard heretic. The cast in that episode is only named by their roles King, Priest, Soldier, etc.
