Larissa Zageris and Kitty Curran on My Lady’s Choosing


oin us on Thursday, April 19th for a wild ride of an evening for My Lady’s Choosing: An Interactive Romance Novel with authors Larissa Zageris and Kitty Curran. A loving tribute to Regency romances in the form of a chooseable-path adventure, My Lady’s Choosing: An Interactive Romance Novel winks at classic genre tropes while allowing readers to determine their own path to their heart’s desire.

Readers navigate the story as a plucky but penniless young woman at the center of nineteenth-century English high society who, at the ripe old age of twenty-eight, is at risk of becoming a spinster. At the end of each section, readers must choose among options that will shape their romantic destiny—will they succumb to scandal, find happily ever after, or be met with some other fate?

Larissa Zageris and Kitty Curran are the creative team behind the hit viral Kickstarter project Taylor Swift: Girl Detective, as well as countless other zines and comics. Larissa is a writer, educator, and photographer whose work has appeared in McSweeney’s Internet Tendency among many other internet places. Kitty is an illustrator and comics artist who is Actually British and therefore has a vast and comprehensive knowledge of courtship rituals, the peerage, and upper-crust accents. They live in Chicago.
