Dignity

Born into nobility during the sixteenth century, young Katheryn lived a profoundly tragic life within the licentious splendor of the Tudor reign. As King Henry VIII's fifth wife, she became notable in her desire to die with dignity and was granted her request to practice laying her head upon the block the night before her execution. Dignity is a presentation of her intense yet short lived life based on little known historical facts about Katheryn Howard. Dignity begins with Katheryn's rehearsal on the night prior to her execution with the first chapter taking a look back into her childhood and progressing forward from there. The story entails relationships with members of her noble family including her cousin Anne Boleyn and the interesting progression of Katheryn's life to include the moment of her death.
