He Started Writing Romance Novels To Heal the World

An Indie Author Spotlight with Gary Balanoff

Romance novels, though the most popular genre of books sold, tend to be laughed off as “fluff” entertainment for women. Gary Balanoff proves otherwise.

Actually, storytellers who understand the human psychology of relationships can help us heal some of the most broken parts of our world. Join our conversation with Gary to hear about his fascinating life story and many of his written stories, including:

  • How he went from a news reporter that covered the Ted Bundy trials and nine space shuttle launches to 40 years of selling real estate, and how those experiences shaped his storytelling inspiration.

  • How he taught himself to become a successful indie romance author in a field typically avoided by men.

  • Why romance and fiction storytellers are crucial to our culture.

  • What readers are really looking for when they open a book.

  • How you can help save the world as a storyteller when you don’t have any money or time.

Come chat with us as we explore the stories that actually change us, the stories we need, and the “silly” stories that can heal our divided country!
