Gwen Reyes

Gwen Reyes has always had an insatiable thirst for a great story, and thanks to her love of books (and disgust with the corporate lifestyle) she has the opportunity to bring together authors and readers.  She developed a love for planning events during her college days at Sweet Briar College, where she earned a degree in Philosophy and Film Studies, a pairing she constantly uses to not only disappoint her parents but to also charm strangers at cocktail parties. Gwen founded Off The Edge in 2004 with her mother, Sara, and together the two built a fun business dedicated to advocating fiction. In the past three years the Fresh Fiction Events division has grown from five to over 45 author-reader events annually, including the acclaimed Readers & ‘ritas Weekend.  Her professional writing career began in 2009 following a three year stint in the film festival world. As a member of the Television Critics Association Gwen travels all over the country to interview your favorite actors and actresses for ReelVixen.com.  Gwen is currently writing her first book, a teen novel about young love and ghosts. She lives in Dallas, Texas with her direwolf boxer mutt Loki, whose favorite movie is Lady and The Tramp.

We formed a Texas LLC for Gwen.
