Discussing Romance: One Newbie and Two Longtime Fans Amrita by the Book 2021-04-25 | Friend Beth was minding her own business so of course Tanya and I got her into reading romance as a fun pandemic activity. Now we have tons to talk about. Tanya Aydelott wrote her first story in elementary school, and then rewrote it as a play for her class to act out. It was mercifully short. More recently, Tanya earned an MFA in writing for children and young adults; none of her published stories (thus far) have been turned into plays. You can find her at: http://tanya-aydelott.comBeth Watkins has been working in museums since college. Outside of work, Beth loves to knit, sing, and watch Indian movies. Her writing on Indian cinema has appeared in major international publications and most recently the anthology Bollywood Horrors: Religion, Violence, and Cinematic Fears in India, published by Bloomsbury Academic. She is very new to reading romance.
