Love, laughter, and a whole lot of hometown heart—How to Write a Satisfying Small-Town Romance is an interactive, craft-focused session for writers who want to make their fictional communities feel as real and irresistible as the love stories unfolding within them. Led by Harlequin and Tule authors Anna Grace and Elle Douglas, this workshop explores why small-town romances captivate readers—the nostalgia, belonging, and emotional warmth—and how to capture that magic without falling into cliché. Through insider tips, lively discussion, and a hands-on “Build Your Town in 10 Minutes” activity, participants will learn to make setting a living, breathing character that deepens conflict, heightens emotion, and delivers that heart-tugging sense of home.
