Events With Authors
CNW Author Events are your chance to connect with some of the freshest, most talented female writers around. Our authors not only read and discuss their latest books, but engage in spirited conversation with you during our famous Q&A sessions.
Whether you’re getting closer than ever to a favorite author or coming to discover a new talent, you’ll be glad to find yourself part of an exciting conversation on literature and the worlds we inhabit in novels, poetry, and nonfiction.
