First off, yes I can explain the whole 'transcription' business. Basically, on the Between the Bars website, we have the option to transcribe, i.e. type out any blogs or letters that have been uploaded, I'm assuming for some kind of record or to make certain hand-written letters more legible and easy to read(?).
In that case, I might have to read the Game of Thrones books and get back to you! That's so funny, my friend is exactly the same in that she loves all things fantasy: vampires, werewolves, you name it! And, of course, these books can provide a sense of escapism that is more profound than non-fiction, or more mundane plots perhaps.
How bizarre that you say you're currently reading about Anne Boleyn whilst I've just today been reading John Guy's 'Elizabeth: The Forgotten Years', which also deals with Henry VIII a lot! It's a very interesting time period I think, partly because of the bloodshed and sheer gruesomeness of it all! That's so impressive! I'm not sure I could very easily name every monarch from William the Conqueror to our current Queen!
I'm pleased to hear that you've transferred units, and hope that things might become a little easier now, but I'd love to know how you're holding up under these new conditions.
With regards to COVID, I think that it will become a relatively regular epidemic, but hopefully it won't necessarily evolve into the pandemic that we are currently experiencing! Here in England, after seeing a reduction in cases, the Prime Minister eased restrictions a little, but it almost looks as though cases are now going to rise again as certain areas in the country have been put back into lockdown! I know that my university are already planning on running the first semester almost entirely online, so I wouldn't be surprised if work, entertainment industries, schools and universities etc. are completely restructured/altered for a while to come!
Thank you again for your reply Kelly, and I hope to hear from you soon!

I have returned from my slight hiatus. I don't know if you remember me, but you sent me a nice little response to your poem, "Trepidation of Love"
I imagine things aren't looking the best right now, but we gotta have a little faith, as they say.
Either way, stay safe and healthy.
Thank you so much for your reply!
