A Goodreads user asked Katherine Longshore:

Hi !I know you received a lot of questions about your future main character for your next book (I hope you will publish many).I feel the need to try my luck to : Are you interested in writing a book about Catherine of Braganza ? I also want to ask you if you know if Catherine visited Charles when he was dying (from what I read some sources says that she did ,others are saying she didn't) Thank you !

Katherine Longshore What a great question! I do love Catherine of Braganza--Can you imagine coming to a strange country where you know no one and struggle to speak the language? And marrying the king?? I also love that she is the person who started the great English tradition of drinking tea. :) I don't know if she visited Charles before he died, but I like to believe she did. By the accounts I read, she was a gracious and generous person.

I can't say definitively if I'd write a book about her--there are so many wonderful historical characters to choose from!

Cheers,

Katherine
