  "description": "THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED. WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE.\n\nThere is no such thing as a perfect first draft. Yet many writers face the blank page with the pressure to get everything right the first time.\n\nJoin Boulder author Wallis Kinney for a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of her internationally bestselling debut romantic fantasy novel, A Dark and Secret Magic. Through drafts, notes, reader feedback, and editorial revisions, Kinney will trace the evolution of her novel from its earliest handwritten ideas to its final published form.\n\nParticipants will get a rare glimpse into the collaborative process behind writing and publishing a book, exploring how stories change through revision, critique, and creative experimentation. Along the way, Kinney will share early concepts, discarded passages, beta-reader comments, and editor notes that helped shape the novel into the book readers know today.\n\nPerfect for writers, readers, aspiring authors, and lovers of all things autumnal, this engaging discussion offers an opportunity to peek behind the curtain and discover how a story makes its journey from first draft to bookshelf.\n\n**About the Author**\n\nWallis Kinney is the author of the internationally bestselling romantic fantasy novel A Dark and Secret Magic. Drawing inspiration from both science and fairy tales, she weaves elements of wonder, curiosity, and imagination into her work. Kinney studied Planetary Science and Molecular Biology at the University of Colorado and holds a Master’s degree in Economics from Purdue University. She is president of the Jane Bosart Foundation, which provides life-changing scholarships to underprivileged students in Texas and Colorado. Kinney lives in Boulder, where the mountains continue to inspire her creative practice.",
