Description:
Valentine’s Day approaches. So settle down with paper, pen, and a box of Godiva, and prepare to learn the secrets of writing romance novels.
In terms of book sales, Romance tops the list. From Amish love stories to erotica, and every romance subgenre in between, readers love quality HEA (Happily Ever After) stories. Today’s romance novels differ greatly from those written a generation ago. We will discuss what has changed, what remains, and what challenges the industry faces today.
In this writing lab, Ariella Moon will share how to break into the crowded romance field. She will also discuss enduring romance themes, and a step-by-step structure for plotting your romance novel.
Unable to attend, no problem, all paid registrants will receive a video replay of this presentation.
