Season 3, Episode 31: Stuck with You (A #WritinginColour interview ft. Fortune Whelan)

Author: Tati R. and Yaki E June 3, 2022 Duration: 1:44:18

To close out #aapiheritagemonth, we will be talking to one of our most fave people in the world, author Fortune Whelan ( @fortunewhelan ). We are going to talk to her about the latest and upcoming releases in the Dorseys of Conception Bay series and what it means to represent her Filipino-Canadian heritage in romance.

About Fortune: Fortune’s stories are “charming, silly and emotionally fraught” with “fast-paced plot[s] that keep pages flying”. When she’s not at her standing desk fending off feline invaders, you can find her on her yoga mat, or shelving books at the local library.. Follow her and get updates at www.FortuneWhelan.com

In Hot Topics in Romance, Yaki fills us in on the Bobby Brown reality series, Devon Frankling joining Married at First Sight, and Shaunie O'Neal small but lavish Anguilla wedding.

In Watching Romance, Tati talks P-valley (June 3 on Starz), The Courtship Finale, Kingdom Business (BET+), RHODubai (June1- Bravo), and Love on the Spectrum (Netflix). Yaki talks Keeping up with the Joneses w/ Vivica Fox (Lifetime).

In Listening to Romance, we shout out Korrie Noelle over at Korrie's Korner and the launch of her new podcast dedicated to historicals, TV and of course, everything Outlander. Listen here:
