Yesterday (yes, I should have been writing), I added a couple of pages to my website. One is a page with contemporary quotes about Margaret of Anjou (I’ll be adding to it), and the other is a gallery of images of Margaret of Anjou as well as samples of her signatures. If you’ve visited Margaret’s Facebook page, you’ve seen the images, but for those who aren’t on Facebook, now you can see them on my website!
Incidentally, while Margaret is delighted that her fellow maligned monarch, Edward II, has so many friends on Facebook, she is quite appalled that Edward IV’s younger brother, Richard III, has over six times as many Facebook friends as Margaret! Do make Margaret feel better by befriending her on Facebook. (At least the gregarious Edward IV doesn’t have a Facebook page at all. Yet.)
