The Romance Writers of America has filed for bankruptcy protection following years of internal discord and racism allegations, resulting in 80% of its members leaving over five years. With just 2,000 members left, the organization faces financial challenges, owing nearly $3 million to hotels for canceled events. The issues began with diversity disputes between board members and a Chinese American author, followed by criticism over lack of diversity and the portrayal of controversial topics in romance novels.
