Between the mortgage on her first home, a perfect if teensy beach cottage, and the cost of feeding her horse-sized dog, she'll never be able to quit her day job. Until it quits her.Suspended for teaching the suddenly and inequitably banned A Wrinkle in Time, her childhood favorite, she is desperate for a book advance. So she throws herself at the mercy, literally, of her brand new, witty, suave, unflappably charming agent, who has reluctantly inherited her.His advice: skip the Lit Fic and write steamy romance instead. Has he met her? Actually, no. But Bridget knows nothing about passionate sex. Ever ready with advice, he proposes a solution: research-she needs to get herself a satchel of Richards.About the participants:Lee Taylor lives and writes in one of the most bewitching forests in the Appalachians. She has taken classes and studied through the Great Smokies Writing Program, with North Carolina author and teacher Katey Schultz, and through the Accountability Workshop with Annie Hartnett and Tessa Fontaine. You will find her most mornings before dawn in her “Yome Sweet Yome” (think “yurt” but better), loving all the tropes, particularly the ones she turns on their heads. When not writing or hiking, she travels for a day job she loves, always on the lookout for an indie bookstore. A Satchel of Richards is her debut novel. Born in Talladega, Alabama, Kate Orsini moved to New York right after high school. Then armed with a double major in French Literature and Theatre (Phi Beta Kappa, from Vassar, which has helped approximately zero times), she headed to LA. On screen, she’s been, among other things, Maria Bello’s ex, Robert Patrick’s hooker nemesis, Hank Azaria’s hooker nemesis, Hayden Panettiere’s lawyer nemesis, Gina Rodriguez’ yuppie nemesis, Ed Begley Jr.’s angry daughter, Malcolm McDowell’s homicidal daughter, Octavia Spencer’s needy patient, and the fertility specialist for everyone’s favorite biracial transgender couple. Her original translation and adaptation of Moliere’s “Tartuffe,” set in Roy-Moore-era Alabama, has played for two seasons at Birmingham’s Virginia Samford Theatre. She’s performed Shakespeare on stage, Chekhov on film, and her own material in every medium available, culminating in the zoom episodic she’s just co-written and starred in, “The Corona Dialogues,” for which she just won Best Actress at The Indie Fest Awards. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/culver-city/romance-book-launch-a-satchel-of-richards-w-lee-taylor/100001980412364694 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, theatre, workshops, festivals, trips-adventures, entertainment, trekking, dog - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Culver City - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: Village Well Books & Coffee - **lat**: 34.0209334 - **long**: -118.3965777 - **full address**: Village Well Books & Coffee, 9900 Culver Boulevard, Culver City, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Romance Book Launch: "A Satchel of Richards" w/ Lee Taylor - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/aa5bb31696fbf75f64a5e615e43fa8183a04f3fb7f41cc7575e67775d577fa48-rimg-w1200-h600-dc112e39-gmir.jpg?v=1769223867 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Romance Book Launch: "A Satchel of Richards" w/ Lee Taylor being held? - **A:** Romance Book Launch: "A Satchel of Richards" w/ Lee Taylor takes place on Thu, 05 Feb, 2026 at 06:30 pm to Thu, 05 Feb, 2026 at 07:30 pm at Village Well Books & Coffee, 9900 Culver Boulevard, Culver City, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Romance Book Launch: "A Satchel of Richards" w/ Lee Taylor? - **A:** Romance Book Launch: "A Satchel of Richards" w/ Lee Taylor is organized by Village Well Books & Coffee. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
