Authors Off Script

Authors Off Script

Authors Off Script is what happens when two authors step away from their keyboards, uncurl from shrimp mode, and start yapping. Hosted by Letizia Firmani and Elena Locatelli—two Italian authors abroad writing in different romance subgenres—this podcast dives into the real, unfiltered chaos of self-publishing, writing life, and everything in between. Expect 50% writing, 50% chaos, and 100% off script.
