Emma Campion is a pseudonym of the popular historical crime writer Candace Robb. The King's Mistress & A Triple Knot grew out of the deep research for her Owen Archer series.

You may have noticed this site hasn’t been updated in quite awhile. That’s because I’ve moved everything to my new website, which includes this blog and much more, over a year ago. You’ve miss a LOT. Check it out: www.candacerobbbooks.com


Just FYI, I will be shutting down this site soon.

“That is how we become wise, by living each day attending to the lessons God puts in our path.”
Emma Campion, The King's Mistress

“Look”
Emma Campion, The King's Mistress

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. ... No artist is pleased. [There is] no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others”
Martha Graham

“Meditation needs no results. Meditation can have itself as an end, I meditate without words and on nothingness. What tangles my life is writing.”
Hélène Cixous, "Coming to Writing" and Other Essays

“And so when you have lost everything, no more roads, no direction, no fixed signs, no ground, no thoughts able to resist other thoughts, when you are lost, beside yourself, and you continue getting lost, when you become the panicky movement of getting lost, then, that’s when, where you are unwoven weft, flesh that lets strangeness come through, defenseless being, without resistance, without batten, without skin, inundated with otherness, it’s in these breathless times that writings traverse you, songs of an unheard-of purity flow through you, addressed to no one, they well up, surge forth, from the throats of your unknown inhabitants, these are the cries that death and life hurl in their combat.”
Hélène Cixous, "Coming to Writing" and Other Essays
