Fireside Book Chat | Guest Authors Amanda Eyre Ward and Chandler Baker

Location: Discovery Area

December 4, 2021 2:00 pm

Join New York Times-bestselling local author (and Reese's Book Club Pick for her novel, The Jetsetters) Amanda Eyre Ward as she moderates a conversation about their books with Chandler Baker, author of  The Husbands, a Good Morning America Book Club Pick

Amanda Eyre Ward is the author of Sleep Toward Heaven, How to Be Lost, Love Stories in This Town, Forgive Me, Close Your Eyes, The Same Sky, The Nearness of You, and The Jetsetters. Her bestselling novels have been featured in People Magazine, The New York Times, and more. Amanda's work has been optioned for film and television and translated into fifteen languages.

These two friends will discuss their books and take questions about writing, reading, and movie deals, so feel free to bring your questions. We will spend time together by the fire pit, talking about where Amanda loves to escape her children and write (hint...it's a location at Lake Austin Spa Resort!), how novels are researched, and what it feels like to get the call from a publisher about Reese Witherspoon or Good Morning America choosing your novel! Whether you're a writer (or aspiring writer) or just a bookworm, this event is for you. Join us and if you can, read The Jetsetters and The Husbands!
