The Romance of the Past: Why We Love the Couples of Yesteryear (Panel)

May 2 @ 11:00 am 12:00 pm

,

This event is part of Regency Romance Weekend.

The roots of modern romance trace back to ancient times to give us tales we can’t resist. Whether it’s Anthony and Cleopatra, Robin Hood and Maid Marion, Mr. Darcy and Miss Bennett, or Anne Shirley and Gilbert Blythe, we see our hopes and dreams reflected and refracted in the mirror of the past. Talk with Long Island Romance Writers about what draws us to the romance of another time and learn what it takes to write a touching tale of love in another era.

Participating writers will be:
