Back to the beginning...

Today I received a proposition! no, it's not a spam email from some dating site. The promoter of an Italian Literature Festival, with a fondness for romance, asked me to held a one hour panel to the next festival on How to Write an Harlequin Romance and Being Published... well, I'm surprised, since first I'm not a writer and so I don't know nothing on How to Write and second I'm not the "classical" Harlequin romance reader...

The fact is that finally, in Italy, Italian romance authors begin to have an audience (more than 90% of the romance in Italy is translated romance from UK and USA), and the Festival wants to organize an intense workshop to help them.

I think that I will accept the offer, I'm quite an ego-woman and I like to talk of romance, so... I need to dust off my Harlequin romance remembrance and maybe, if in the audience someone will ask me what I actually read...

Grazie Laura, cercherò di introdurre l'argomento senza rischiare il linciaggio!

Certo che te l'ho mandata la mail, adesso guardo se ce l'ho ancora nella posta inviata altrimenti la riscrivo :-)
