Beyond Beach Reads with Three Local Authors
Vancouver, BC -- April 30, 2008 -- Holidays
are about escaping the demands of real life,
and what better accompaniment than a fun
beach read. But be warned - you might actually
learn something! Writing fiction isn’t
just a flight of fancy. Often it involves
a lot of research. Come and learn how three
local authors research and write their books.
Local romance authors, Susan Lyons, Kate
Austin and Eileen Cook will lead a panel
discussion and reading about BEACH READS:
More Than Meets the Eye. It will be held
at 7:00 p.m. on May 12, 2008, in the Alice
MacKay Room at the Vancouver Public Library.
Admission is free for this Romance Writers
of America®- Greater Vancouver Chapter
(RWA®-GVC) event.
Susan Lyons (www.susanlyons.ca) writes
hot romantic stories that dabble in deeper
issues for an international fan base. Her
fifth just-published novel, She’s
on Top, is receiving rave reviews across
the board as a “luscious and sexy
romance.”
Multi-published Kate Austin (www.kateaustin.ca)
writes stories that are thoughtful and heartwarming—routinely
top picks by industry reviewers. Her latest,
Seeing is Believing, “has
it all—romance, sexual tension, mystery,
adventure and a strong heroine.”
Disabilities counsellor by day, Eileen
Cook has turned to writing at night. Her
much-anticipated debut novel, Unpredictable
from Penguin/Berkley (February 2008), is
“destined to climb to the top of the
bestseller lists.” (www.eileencook.com)
BEACH READS: More than Meets the Eye is
co-sponsored by the Vancouver Public Library
and RWA®-GVC.
