Writing alone is tough enough -- so, is writing with a partner easier, or does it create a whole new set of problems? Three teams of authors will explore the process of writing in collaboration with a partner. This diverse and informative panel will also discuss their methodology and experiences, as well as the trials, tribulations and rewards. Afterwards, they will also answer questions from the audience and autograph their work.
