About Elle Lothlorien

Elle Lothlorien is the self-published, bestselling author of two romantic comedies, THE FROG PRINCE and SLEEPING BEAUTY, as well as a “reluctant expert” on the business of e-publishing, e-book purchasing and pricing, and the changing relationship between readers and authors in the digital age.

In April 2012—in response to the number of fans who felt that the main character ended up with “the wrong guy”—Elle published an “Alternate Version” of SLEEPING BEAUTY.

Elle is considered a “reluctant expert” on electronic self-publishing (also called “indie-publishing”), and has been invited to speak and lead workshops for writers, authors, and the even the publishing industry—most noticeably the “Successful Self-Published Authors” panel at Digital BookWorld Expo in January 2012.

Elle has been a member of the guest faculty for The Writing School in Denver, Colorado since January 2012.
