Writing a book is one thing, but getting it published is quite another.
Fantasy novelist Katharine Adams, from Paraparaumu Beach, will facilitate a workshop that will discuss various aspects of the publishing journey.
Adams worked in medical imaging until moving to Kāpiti, where she spends her days writing, playing taxi to her children, and making space for just one more book on overflowing shelves.
If she’s not out mountain biking or tramping with her family, she’s often found hiding in the garden, where she says she kills more plants than characters in her stories.
In the first book in her dark and decadent debut fantasy trilogy, Tonight, I Burn, a young witch who burns each night to travel between the realms of life and death, makes a desperate pact to try and save her sister’s life, while navigating a dangerous romance with an ethereal prophecy weaver in one realm and a mysterious lord in the other, and gets drawn into a magical rebellion that could destroy her coven and unravel her soul.
