Trivia: ON TENTERHOOKS
After
it was woven wool was pounded in a mixture of clay and water to clean
and thicken it. This was called fulling. Afterwards the wool was
stretched on a frame called a tenter to dry. It was hung on tenterhooks.
So if you were very tense, like stretched cloth, you were on
tenterhooks.
Jacqueline is a fan of historical dramas as long as they're clean with some crazy plot twists. Often she writes with her darling Nash-cat resting on her arms, which makes for some interesting typing. She's a survivor of narcissistic head games, and adds bits and pieces taken from her experiences to her stories.
