I love what you did for Richard. I also love the fact that even though he had scoliosis, you didn't let that define him. As a scoliosis sufferer myself (on top of the ME, sigh) I do hate the fact that Shakespeare used it to denote Richards evilness. I didn't realise you had it too, Sharon. Let's hear it for the curvy backs.
It surprised me how many of my readers have it, Loretta, which I discovered when I revealed that I have it after learning that Richard did, too.
I have slight scoliosis too. All the women in my family do. I am excited about possibly visiting the Richard III Discovery Centre in Leicester next year...and by the time I get there, Richard will have been interred in his new tomb next door in the cathedral.
That should be a memorable visit, Margaret; I'd definitely like to see the new centre and Richard's tomb, of course
I've been reading about it in Current Archaeology magazine. The centre looks fantastic.
