#FindOut Friday Answers 48
It's getting to the end of September already? And it's Friday? Well, here are your #TriviaTuesday answers. How many did you get right? Answer below!
Chronic Illnesses - A debate of today...or, so RFK Jr thinks. Chronic illnesses are diseases that live visibly inside the body, causing pain, dizziness and more. There are literally thousands of chronic illnesses, all of them caused by trauma, genetics, medications and more. A good diet and exercise can help, but it is not the solution nor the cure. With all this in mind, I decided to use this with the character of Victoria Ronald in From Across the Sea and the upcoming In Fiery Autumn Dress. While the fictional world of Enos does not have the same advances we have in the real world, but it is nonetheless real and unpredictable.
Thomas Wolsey - A Tudors era figure that not many know about. Thomas Wolsey (1473-1530) was a stateman and a cardinal of the Catholic church in England. Originally risen in the court of King Henry VII, Wolsey found himself the most powerful man in England in the reign of Henry VIII. He managed the government tasks the King overlooked. However, by the 1520's, when Henry VIII wanted his annulment from his first wife, Katherine of Aragorn, Wolsey was trusted to take the matter in hand. In this, he failed, which secured his fate. While it took a few years to gain an attainder against Wolsey, he did not die the same way his counterpart did in Casting Shadows. The character of Archbishop Bray, modeled after Wolsey, was executed for leading a rebellion against the queen. Wolsey escaped the executioner's axe by dying on his way to the Tower of London.
Anne and Mary Boleyn - Appearances can be deceiving, especially when it comes to sisters. For Anne and Mary Boleyn, the daughters of an infamous Tudor courtier, their lives twisted away from each other when events out of their control took root. While Mary was the oldest (as historians have concluded), Anne was the most famous, being the second wife to King Henry VIII. These two sisters shared fictional counterparts - sisters Eleanor and Jayne Brutrose. While little is known about the sisters personally, it is their stereotypical roles in history and literature that have stood the test of time. Mary was said to be fair, shy, light-skinned and less ambitious than Anne, who was dark, outgoing, intelligent and witty. There might have been a competitiveness between the pair too. What sisters don't fight?
That's it, everyone! Tune in next week for #BehindTheScenes and the third part of my writing journey. Week after that, there will be another #TriviaTuesday Namaste!
