About the Author

Wendy J. Dunn is an Australian author, playwright and poet who has been obsessed by Anne Boleyn and Tudor History since she was ten-years-old. She is the author of three Tudor novels: Dear Heart, How Like You This?, the winner of the 2003 Glyph Fiction Award and 2004 runner up in the Eric Hoffer Award for Commercial Fiction, The Light in the Labyrinth, her first young adult novel, and Falling Pomegranate Seeds.

While she continues to have a very close and spooky relationship with Sir Thomas Wyatt, the elder, serendipity of life now leaves her no longer wondering if she has been channeling Anne Boleyn and Sir Tom for years in her writing, but considering the possibility of ancestral memory. Her own family tree reveals the intriguing fact that her ancestors – possibly over three generations – had purchased land from both the Boleyn and Wyatt families to build up their own holdings. It seems very likely Wendy’s ancestors knew the Wyatts and Boleyns personally.

Born in Melbourne, Australia, Wendy is married and the mother of three sons and one daughter—named after a certain Tudor queen, surprisingly, not Anne.

  26. Would love to win.

  27. I have been semi-obsessed with all things Tudor, and while doing genealogy one day, Jacquetta of Luxembourg popped up unexpectedly as a direct ancestor, via her daughter, Katherine, Duchess of Buckingham.
    As it says in the article, I too feel the ancestral memory from a very young age. I have memory of things from centuries ago, along with being an empath, and have prophetic dreams. I believe there are no coincidences. I was actually starting to look up Melusine when this popped up on my news thread.
    I read everything I run across pertaining to Tudor, Clarence, York, Lancaster, Elizabeth and all. This is the first time I have seen your books, and I’m looking forward to collecting & reading them all!
    Good luck to all entrants to the contest. I’m sure each winner will be delighted. Happy Holidays to everyone.
