Target audience and the publishing world


Anne Boleyn was an important figure in history as she was the first woman to capture Henry’s interest so much that, a battle to overrun the church was started so that he could annul his first marriage to Katherine of Aragon. It changed the situation for women in England, meaning that any woman could be overturned. It was the first step in Henry’s journey of making women he fancied Queen of England – all in the gain of trying to have a son. She was also the first wife to be beheaded, though not the last and this would appeal to an audience passionate about history or simply having a loose interest in it. Anne’s story is compelling and the mystery around her accusations will draw in this type of audience..

This would also work in the publishing world as it would be a different take on her story – from my view and from my own research. People interested in history and this time would automatically be interested in the type of writing and therefor become a target for publishing companies. It could possibly appeal to anyone interested in the royal family, as she was a part of aristocracy and would appeal to students or Secondary school students studying this part of history, therefor sparking interest in the publishing world for this target audience.
