In their latest books, Austin novelists Erin Quinn-Kong and Elissa R. Sloan explore the challenges of modern relationships and personal identity in the digital age. Quinn-Kong’s Hate Follow focuses on the tumultuous relationship between an influencer mother and her daughter, who sues for privacy after years of living in the public eye. Sloan’s Double Exposure follows two former Hollywood stars whose lives remain intertwined as they navigate fame, heartbreak, and self-discovery. Both novels provide a fresh look at how family, fame, and personal growth play out in today’s fast-paced world.
