When I imagine an actress as #Jacquette in #ButterflyGames, I see Daisy Edgar-Jones. She’ll make a great #ElinorDashwood. #JaneAusten #PeriodDramas

Have you explored this year’s #31titleswomeninhistory list yet?
31 novels. 31 days. Women who shaped history — sometimes quietly, sometimes boldly, always powerfully.
I’m honored to be part of this lineup for Women’s History Month.
Which title have you read? Which one are you adding to your March list?
Celebrate. Learn. Read.

Butterfly Games has been included in #31titleswomeninhistory for Women’s History Month — and I’m so honored to be beside these extraordinary authors. 💙
Every day in March, a different novel celebrating women in history is featured. Mine was March 2… which I may have missed. Ahem. It`s my mother`s 90th birthday this week and things are hitting the fan.
But it’s never too late to celebrate remarkable women.
If you haven’t discovered Butterfly Games yet, this is your invitation. Court politics. Power. A woman navigating a world designed to silence her.
Celebrate. Learn. Read.
Thank you to @janisrdalywriter for curating such a thoughtful list.

I’m so grateful to @authormarthajean for her thoughtful, generous words about Butterfly Games.
As a fellow historical fiction author, Martha`s reflections on power, choices, and the quiet force of women in history felt especially meaningful to me.
Martha’s own historical novel, The Queen’s Musician, is one I absolutely adore, and her Substack is a wonderful place to read about history, craft, and creativity.

"Twelve years. Enough said."
I opened up about the long journey to publish Butterfly Games with @TableReadMagazineUK — from reading the historical novel Désirée at age 14 to digging through centuries-old archives.
Read more about the inspirations and challenges behind the novel.

Huge thanks to everyone who braved the cold in lovely Concord, NH for the launch of my historical novel, Butterfly Games. I can’t say enough about Concord’s @gibsonsbookstorenh and its super events manager, @ryinwonderland. It was such a pleasure to be in conversation with @lauraknoyauthor and to learn more about her latest release, The Shopkeeper of Alsace. Special thanks to @allegraboverman for lending her expert photography skills, and to @lucysconfections for the tasty book cookies! Two of my favorite authors, @authorjaneward and @nancy.bernhard.author were there to support me, and I’m so grateful for their friendship and for all my sisters @shewritespress . Onward, 🦋 Butterfly Games!
I read the first line of Butterfly Games on First Lines with @jude.berman, — author of historical novel The Vow. We talked about how it came into being, including the chapters that didn’t survive, and what cutting them revealed about power, restraint, and story.
If you’re curious about how the book began — and how it changed — the link is in my bio.

📍 Concord friends & New Hampshire readers — tonight’s the night.
Join me this evening at 6:30 PM at Gibson’s Bookstore for an in-conversation event with the wonderful Laura Knoy. We’ll be talking books, history, women’s lives, and the questions that fiction lets us ask out loud.
If you’re nearby, I’d love to see you there. ✨📚
