Join us at Books & Books in Coral Gables with international best selling author R. M Romero for an evening of writing craft & community!
About this Event

Do you have a hankering to tell electrifying tales? Maybe an idea for one that you're looking to put on the page? Do you have a manuscript that's waiting to become a novel?

Wherever you are on your writing journey, Books & Books has a home for you. We invite you to join us for an evening with international bestselling author R. M. Romero! She will be leading a critique group in which four participants will be chosen at random to read their work aloud for ten minutes, followed by a 20 minute workshop session. So please bring five to ten pages of your book, short story, poetry, or play for feedback from your fellow writers.

Additionally, we will set aside half an hour for you to ask us any questions you have about writing, querying, and publishing.

The workshop will run from 6:30 to 9:30 PM, with a fifteen minute break in the middle. Tickets are $10.00 and will be redeemable for a free drink, which can include house wine, beer, or a coffee.
