Shadows and Swoon is an In Conversation event bringing together romance lovers and local authors for a bold, blush-worthy discussion on the romantasy genre.
From YA to very adult, our panel of authors will step into a world where romance meets the mysterious, the magical, and the macabre whilst celebrating love in its most shadowy, spellbinding forms.
Hear from authors from all spectrums of the genre, from dark and steamy to paranormal and gothic romance, as they unpack the characters, plot and inspiration behind their stories and delve into the gripping aspects of the romantasy genre.
Panellists include:
- Urban gothic romance writer Melanie Pickering – author of Spill and Ghosted and featured in anthologies Mermaid Kisses, My True Love Gave To Me and The Love Hexperts
- Indie fantasy romance author Elena Moriarty – Crimson Tales trilogy (The Hunt of the Halfling, The Shadow of the Serpent and The Bones of the Banished)
- Dark romantic fantasy writer Demi Clorissa – The Divine Bride and Daughter of the Wood series
- Panel moderated by award-winning and best-selling steamy paranormal romance author, H.M. Hodgson
…with more guests announced soon.
Book signings: After the event, authors will be signing books in the Angelika foyer. You can also purchase the authors’ books (and many more) at the Shelf Lovers pop-up bookstore in the foyer..
