Philippa Gregory Revealed

Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. Walk Home. Q. With whom in history do you most identify? A. Right now, Elizabeth Woodville, Edward IV's chosen wife and Queen of England Q. What’s your best quality? A. I am affectionate and loving. Q. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you choose to be? A. I am lucky in that I am in my study overlooking my garden in a beautiful part of England and the sun is shining. I wouldn't be anywhere but here. Q. If you could meet any historical character, who would it be and what would you say to him or her? A. I should love to meet Elizabeth I and ask her about the mysteries of her time: her attitude to marriage, to Mary, Queen of Scots, the reasons behind her decisions. Learn more about Philippa Gregory
