Guest:
D.H. Morris — historical fiction author, playwright, grandmother of eleven, global traveler, and eternal student of history.
🪄 Episode Summary:
In this inspiring episode of Girlish Gurus, we step into the 9th century through the pen of author D.H. Morris, who brings to life the powerful and little-known story of Judith of France in her novel The Girl of Many Crowns. But this isn’t just about medieval royalty—it’s about reclaiming women’s voices, exploring creativity in midlife, and writing from the heart.
