Our in-house reading series, the Process, takes a turn toward romance in February with a visit from two Seattle authors. Olivia Waite writes historical romance, fantasy, and science fiction, and is the author of The Lady’s Guide to Celestial Mechanics. She reviews romance monthly in the Seattle Review of Books, and lives on top of a hill with her husband and their adorable mini-dachshund. Kitty Cook is a book chef based out of Seattle, specializing in salty heroines, spicy plotlines, and semisweet endings that hit the spot. Her first novel, Sleeping Together, won a 2019 Silver IPPY for best first book and a 2019 IndieReader Discovery Award for best romance. Her writing has appeared in the New York Times and Salon.com under a different, less ridiculous name. Join us for romantic readings and, as always, a lively discussion of the writing process!
