Get ready to read the remarkable story of Mary I, queen of England, in ‘Mary I: Queen of Sorrows’ by Alison Weir — which is out in hardback today with Headline Books.

Alison says: “Mary Tudor was the adored only surviving child of Henry VIII by his first wife, Katherine of Aragon. Born in 1516, she was heir presumptive to the English throne. But her world came crashing around her when her father's eye alighted on her mother's maid-of-honour, Anne Boleyn.”

And the impossible is exactly what the formidable Major Sharpe is asked to do when he's dispatched on an undercover mission behind enemy lines, deep in the Spanish countryside.

Bernard Cornwell's latest novel SHARPE'S COMMAND is out in paperback today with HarperCollins Publishers UK and HarperCollins Books Australia.

“Thank you so much for all that you do for us and for all the encouragement. You left us with very positive feelings – and our following is creeping steadily and solidly upwards.” — Nicci French

We worked closely with the team at Michael Joseph (Penguin Random House) to support Nicci Gerrard and Sean French to ramp up reader excitement about the Frieda Klein books, the complex crimes, and the on-going cast of characters.

By taking readers right back inside the pages of the Nicci French backlist we pro-actively encouraged and rewarded long-term brand loyalty.

We will shortly be releasing dates for our popular ‘Voice coaching and stagecraft’ course that will run through October, November, and December 2023.

This is for you if want to take your performance to the next level – whether you speak to a virtual audience or in-person, to a handful of people or a jam-packed auditorium.

— You’re about to engage in public speaking for the first time
— You need to present more often at work meetings
— You will be presenting at a conference or trade show
— You are looking to hone your existing skills

This course is run by a trained actor and each session is limited to a maximum of 6 people. Booking is essential to secure your spot. 👋🏼 DM me ‘VOICE’ if you are interested in this course.

Course fee: £250.00 GBP / $490.00 AUD

🎯 You will have an opportunity to talk through any nerves/anxiety you experience before events and how this impacts your performance.

🎯 You will be guided through a series of physical and vocal exercises to improve your vocal range, projection, and event stamina.

🎯 You will have the opportunity to deliver a 'mini' talk and a reading – as if you were presenting to your target audience.

🎯 You will receive feedback that's tailored to your individual needs: to help you to get the most out of your unique presenting style and physicality, as well as your natural vocal range.

🎯 This session explores the essentials of stagecraft, so you'll have the skills to use the performance space with confidence from the moment you step on the stage.

This course is delivered via our Zoom virtual classroom.

To attend you will need access to a computer or smart tablet – with a camera and microphone – and to activate a free Zoom account.

The course runs over a 3-hour session (3 people) or a 4-hour session (4-6 people).

🐿️ Save this post so you can find it when you need it.

👋🏼 DM me ‘1-2-1’ if you would prefer 1-2-1 training.

When you are about to deliver a talk or creative workshop to a school, festival, bookshop or library audience, there can be a lot of moving parts that you need to stay on top of.

Check these things off your list in advance so they don’t cause any last-minute stress – and so you can stay focused on your performance.

This doesn’t cover everything, of course.

The most important thing to take away from this post is that when you pre-book, pre-plan, and pre-check, you give yourself more chance to relax and enjoy yourself on the day of your event.

🐿️ Save this post so you can find it when you need it.

👋🏼 DM me ‘EVENTS’ to find out about voice coaching and performance training.
