Hi authors!  

For our second live Q&A of the year, we’re featuring a roundtable discussion and “ask me anything”-style gathering with a delightful group of best-selling romance authors. These authors include best-selling authors Bridget E. Baker, Elana Johnson, Jean Oram, Jan Moran, and Kellie Coates Gilbert! Their discussion will be moderated by Kobo Writing Life’s author engagement manager and avid romance reader, Laura.

This roundtable is a great opportunity to learn more about writing, marketing, and selling your romance standalones and series, and a perfect place to garner some amazing advice from these prolific writers.

Plus, in collaboration with Kobo Writing Life, B. E. Baker is hosting a giveaway for one Kobo eReader device – the new Kobo Clara 2E, launched late last year! Along with the chance to win a free eReader, you will also receive FIVE free eBooks – one from each of the featured authors. For more information on the giveaway, click here.

And, for all you readers out there (which should be all of you, we’re sure), we are running a promotional sale on many of the titles by the authors tabling at this Q&A until March 2nd 2023. Check out that promo here!

We will also have time for more questions at the end, so be sure to join the live event and have those Qs ready! And, as always, happy writing.

Bridget loves her husband (every day) and all five of her kids (most days). She’s a lawyer, but does as little legal work as possible. She has three quarter horse geldings, a Holsteiner (jumping) horse, a paint mare, and she spends too much time riding and not enough time writing. (Or too much time writing and not enough time riding, depending on your perspective!)

She has more chickens than she’ll admit to having, two lions head rabbits, two cat, two dogs (one bouncy and one yappy). She makes cookies waaaaay too often and believes they should be their own food group. In a (possibly misguided) attempt at balancing the scales, she kickboxes daily. So if you don’t like her books, her kids, her horses, her chickens, or her cookies, maybe don’t tell her in person.

Bridget is active on social media, and has a Facebook group she comments in often. Please feel free to join her there.
