Join Penn alumni Jordan Rockwell (C’00) and Ashley Wren Collins (C’98) for a live reading, conversation, Q&A, and signing celebrating their new romantic comedy novel, She Wrote, He Wrote: A New York Love Story.


Told through the dual perspectives of aspiring writer Joanna Peterson-Mills and finance scion Logan Thurgood, She Wrote, He Wrote: A New York Love Story begins with a disastrous autumn dinner party in Manhattan and spirals into a sidesplitting “not-so meet cute” as the two navigate career ambitions, dating disasters, and modern romance beneath the New York City skyline.


The evening will feature live readings performed by Philadelphia actors, followed by a moderated discussion with author and journalist Joselin Linder and an audience Q&A/signing.
