On Writing Romance What readers are saying about ON WRITING ROMANCE "This is the bible of romance!" Gerene R. "This is a superb book. I don't think I've ever learnt such a lot in such a short space of time and enjoyed it so much than when reading this. Each chapter takes one aspect of writing a novel, such as plotting, characterization, dialogue, love scenes, sexual tension etc. and explains it in easy to read language. Then she goes on to use excerpts from different authors, together with more explanation, to illustrate each point. I enjoyed it so much I just wanted to hole up somewhere and read the whole book straight through, soaking up every word. There's a lot of it (257 pages) and it's quite densely printed, but that doesn't make it difficult to read because the text is broken up by subtitles, bullet points and boxouts. As a novice writer myself I couldn't recommend it highly enough and will treasure my copy for many years to come." Lynn SPECIAL OFFER The hardcover edition of On Writing Romance (retail price $22.99) is now available directly from Leigh, at a special price.

Contributor Network Nov 17, 2005 "Contribute content like this. Start Here More: Kiss and Tell Romance Novels ... Historical Romance What a Romance Novel Is Romance novels fall into two distinct categories, which might not be obvious to the writer new to romance writing. The first is the category romance, which tends to work much like a series and often features sequentially numbered spines that place the books within a line. These lines release a specific number of books per month, tend to run the same page length and word count, and will deal with a specific theme; either a time period, particular setting, or common conflicts. Either way that you go, though, the romance novel has a few undeniable things in common: 1. A heroine (who is the main character) and a hero 2. A critical situation 3. Plenty of conflict 4. Romantic encounters 5. A resolution to the critical situation (and, thus, the conflict) 6. A happy ending in which the reader can truly believe the hero and heroine will love each other forever

Writer's Magazine Writers Magazine 2009 The website for writers Writing romance So you want to be a romance writer? You’ve made an interesting choice because, although a lot of people scoff at romance, it is the most stable genre of all and has continued to keep its faithful readers when other categories have changed radically and sometimes lost their audiences. Romance has changed a bit in recent years and embraced a more complex story, sometimes with more explicit sex in it, but essentially this is a category which marches on, providing happy endings, when all around it the world has changed. To an unusual degree which is not mirrored in any other category, the current romance category is ‘owned’ by one publisher, Harlequin Mills and Boon, with very little input from elsewhere, although the HarperCollins’Avon imprint, has been attempting to compete in both the US and the UK, with some success. When Gerald Mills and Charles Boon launched a little company with just Ł1,000 just over a hundred years ago, they can have had no idea of the industry they would spawn. Mills and Boon merged with Canadian romance publisher Harlequin in 1971 and was later bought out by Toronto-based conglomerate Torstar. These days Harlequin Mills and Boon publish romances in a remarkably commercial and effective way. Not hugely stocked in the shops, the books are bought as sets on a subscription model and vast numbers of copies go straight out to the faithful readers who subscribe to get their regular clutch of their favourite books.

The ABC cannot guarantee its complete accuracy because of the possibility of mishearing and occasional difficulty in identifying speakers. Ramona Koval : There's a belief in the writing business that romance fiction is easy, that you just write to a formula, send in your manuscript and then it's published. Well, wrong. Writing a sex scene is all about timing, even that swashbuckling, womanising master Norman Mailer had trouble with it. He's written some pretty bad sex scenes and lucky for him he wasn't a romance writer because in romance fiction if you don't nail it you won't have readers lining up for your next instalment. Publishers get sent thousands of romance manuscripts each year but only a small number ever make it into print. Valerie Parv and Alexis Fleming are both successful romance writers. Valerie has edited a collection of essays by romance writers on how to write and how to get your fiction published. The book is called

New windows of opportunity have opened to talented writers with persistence and determination. Prolific authors who consider themselves storytellers, rather than literary greats with an inclination to change the world, often resent the analysis of a commercial endeavor. Romance novelists are entertainers. They write from the heart with inspiration and hope. Scholars who try to decipher their words usually fail. The message of the romance novel is not a complicated one. It is above all else a love story. Complications set in when a critic examines the various types of romance, its categories and sub-genres."
