Better is excited to launch the brand-new official website for Philippa Gregory, one of the world’s most successful authors, whose books have sold millions of copies in over 40 countries.

Known for her ground-breaking women’s history book, Normal Women and best-selling historical novels, including The Other Boleyn Girl and The White Queen, Philippa continues to captivate readers across the globe. The new website launch comes as Philippa celebrates a major global deal with HarperCollins to publish three new historical novels across the UK, US, Australia, and seven other international markets.

With more than 10 years of collaboration between Philippa Gregory and Better, the new site celebrates a long-standing digital partnership. This launch marks the fourth evolution of her official website, which has been re-designed to bring her readers closer than ever before to her stories.

The fresh design and improved user experience make it easier for fans from across the world to explore her latest works and her extensive back catalogue. It also lets users learn more about her latest projects, news and book tours, and Philippa’s Theatre, TV, and Film work.

“Philippa is an international best-seller and one of the world’s foremost historical novelists. The new website is built to reflect that,” said Adam Gatenby, Digital Director at Better. “It is designed to help users discover her work, whether they’re lifelong fans or discovering her books for the first time.”

“We’re thrilled with the site’s new design. The team at Better has been able to balance the needs of our publishers and our readers. Philippa’s readership is diverse with multiple territories and age ranges to consider – Better’s design is simple, intuitive, and very beautiful.”
Zahra Glibbery, CEO, Levon Publishing

Now a recognised authority on women’s history, Philippa graduated from the University of Sussex and received a PhD from the University of Edinburgh. She holds honorary degrees from Teesside University and the University of Sussex. She is a fellow of the Universities of Sussex and Cardiff and an honorary research fellow at Birkbeck University of London. In 2020, she was made a CBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours for her services to literature and charity.

With dozens of bestsellers, her novels have been translated into multiple languages and adapted for the big and small screen, including The White Queen, a 10-part BBC One historical drama series based on The Cousins’ War. Her stories have inspired generations of readers, cementing her place as one of the most influential authors of our time.

The launch of the website is one of several recent project wins for strategic brand agency Better, which, based out of its studio in Tees Valley, provides brand, design, and digital services to clients across the globe.
