Writer Talk: With Jody Holford (Sophie Sullivan) and Kalie Holford
Free or by donation

Event Description

WRITER TALK is our new live interview series designed to pull back the golden curtain on the publishing world. Casual chitchat—not a workshop or webinar—a low-key Q&A between host and guest where you can bring your writing and publishing questions.
 
Each session features a guest from within this crazy industry—writers of all career stages repping a variety of genres and styles, successfully published authors, freelance and publishing house editors, agents, publicists, and other book-world professionals—in a candid chat meant to inform and inspire. We’ll dig into the real questions we all have about how to go from page 1 to published.

Digital doors open at 6:55 pm!

**This event will be recorded. A link to the recording will be emailed to registrants within a week of the session. The recording will be available for 45 days.

About Our Guests: 

A mother-daughter writing duo? YES!

Jody Holford/Sophie Sullivan is a multi-published, Canadian author of romcoms and cozy mysteries. She's written more than thirty books and never gets tired of swoon-worthy moments in books she's reading or writing. When she's not lost in words, she's watching reruns of Friends, hanging with her family, and playing with her puppies.

Kalie Holford is an author and grad student studying Library and Information Studies. She resides in British Columbia where she lives with her family and two puppies. She loves Mamma Mia!, country music, and love songs and stories. Her passion is writing books about messy girls who make mistakes, learn to love, and grow alongside each other, and her debut, The Last Love Song, features all of these things. When she's not writing, she's likely making graphic designs, studying, or re-organizing her bookshelves for the thousandth time. She can also be found at @kalieholford on Instagram and TikTok.

After the initial Q&A, attendees will have the opportunity to ask their own questions and join the discussion. If you’ve ever wanted to sit in on the kinds of conversations that usually happen behind closed doors, then we shall save you a spot!
