Basically, I love consuming books in every form possible! Hardback, paperback, ebook or audiobook: Can I say all of them? I love the way hardback books look on my shelf I love the way you can curl up with a paperback book I love ebooks because they can live in my pocket and travel anywhere with me and I love that I can listen to audiobooks while I'm doing other things, like running or driving or cleaning my house. From that moment on, I was always writing in the spiral notebooks I carried with me everywhere. But I absolutely loved writing it, and I loved it even more when the book was bound together and I could share it with my parents.

Networks would be wise to take cues from Cochrun's ode to reality TV romance.The moment I knew I wanted to become an author: In Kindergarten, I wrote my first 'book.' It was essentially a Barney the Dinosaur fanfic about Barney and his sister Baby Bop getting ice cream together. With entertaining insight into how the happily-ever-after sausage gets made and nuanced discussions about mental health and sexuality, this witty, moving page-turner is nothing short of delightful. Set behind the scenes of the fictional TV show Ever After, Alison Cochrun is unafraid to flip reality TV's tired tropes into fresh storylines. In between the meet-cute, quippy banter, and red-hot sexual chemistry, Cochrun also offers readers a thoughtful and caring exploration of gay love and the mental health struggles people with social anxiety and depression deal with every day.' - Booklist (starred review), 'The Charm Offensive is a heartwarming rom-com with unforgettable characters who will challenge you to see love in a new light. Heart-stoppingly romantic and radiantly empathetic.' -Rachel Lynn Solomon, author of The Ex Talk, 'Cochrun's polished, smart, and delightful debut romance delivers all the quintessential feel-good moments of a great romcom. As a longtime (and long-suffering) Bachelor fan, I grinned at all the winks to the franchise, cheered at the subversions of reality TV tropes, and grew faint as Dev and Charlie danced closer to embracing their true feelings-and even truer selves.
