A Look at Love

Everyone has their own idea about what makes a romance novel . . . but how has the genre changed over the years? As previously untold love stories have entered the market, how have writers, publishers, and readers responded? From old tropes to new trends, we’ll discuss the secret to success in the ever-evolving genre of romance.

Authors TJ ALEXANDER and ELF AHEARN are featured. LAUREN WHITE-JACKSON, freelance editor and New York Book Forum program committee chair also joins the conversation, which is moderated by JENNIFER PROFFITT, digital marketing manager for Brooklyn Public Library and co-host of Ship Tease, a romance recommendation podcast.
