On 13 February 2016 the Tuggeranong Arts Centre will host a screening of the documentary Love Between the Covers, a feature-length documentary film about the little-known, surprisingly powerful community of women who read and write romance novels. After the film, several saucy Canberra romance writers—all at different stages of their writer’s journey—will be on hand to answer questions about what it’s like to be part of this global, billion-dollar industry. Ask us anything (bring your question in writing with you name on it to enter the draw to win the main prize of a $100 book voucher, or one of several romance novels).
With Valentine’s Day falling the next day, what better time to learn about the business of love?
