Author Elise Hooper will moderate a special panel with bestselling authors Sara Ackerman, Yangsze Choo, Kate Quinn, and Noelle Salazar as they discuss historical fiction, the writing process, their favorite summer reads, and more. At this virtual program, they’ll share behind-the-scenes tidbits on what it’s like to be an author, while also leaving plenty of time for Q&A.
Through a special partnership with Orinda Books (OrindaBooks.com), a book purchase includes an autographed bookplate and an opportunity for a virtual chat with the authors immediately following the program. Please mention “WCLF Program” when making a purchase online or by phone.
