SUMMARY:An Evening with Bronnie Ware @ Alternate Root Café
DESCRIPTION:Join bestselling author Bronnie Ware for an intimate evening marking the launch of her debut novel\, Kookaburra. This is a rare public appearance and an opportunity to step inside the story behind the story—why Bronnie moved from internationally acclaimed non-fiction into fiction\, how Kookaburra came to life\, and what it means to begin a new creative chapter. The evening will feature an in-conversation with the author\, a short reading from the novel\, audience Q&A\, and generous time for book signing\, photographs\, and connection. Each ticket includes a copy of Kookaburra\, a welcome drink (champagne or juice)\, and shared grazing platters.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Bronnie Ware @ Alternate Root
DESCRIPTION:A rare literary gathering celebrating the launch of Kookaburra. \nJoin bestselling author Bronnie Ware for an intimate evening marking the launch of her debut novel\, Kookaburra. Held in a relaxed country café setting\, this is a limited-capacity event designed to feel more like a literary salon than a traditional book launch. This is a rare public appearance and an opportunity to step inside the story behind the story—why Bronnie moved from internationally acclaimed non-fiction into fiction\, how Kookaburra came to life\, and what it means to begin a new creative chapter. The evening will feature an in-conversation with the author\, a short reading from the novel\, audience Q&A\, and generous time for book signing\, photographs\, and connection. Each ticket includes a copy of Kookaburra\, a welcome drink (champagne or juice)\, and shared grazing platters. Additional drinks and meals will be available for purchase from the café menu throughout the evening. More than a book launch\, this is an intimate gathering for readers who want to share in the celebration of Bronnie’s first novel. Seats are strictly limited. \n VIP Ticket: Arrive 30 minutes early for first entry into the event space; First choice of seating; A photo opportunity with Bronnie before the main event begins\, avoiding later queues. \nThis evening is designed to feel warm\, conversational\, and memorable—an opportunity to experience the author and her new work up close. \n
