Crafting Category Romance

The Art of Fiction Haiku

De: Amy Lane

Narrado por: Jenn Lee

Category romance is a precise art. With such a small word count, writing the perfect category romance is a little like writing a haiku. But how do you write a book in 17 syllables? How can you cram compelling conflict, satisfying character development, and toe-curling romantic tension into less than 60,000 words?

In Crafting Category Romance, two-time RITA™-nominated author of nearly 100 books Amy Lane describes the rules of engagement, traps to watch out for, and how to leverage common tropes to create conflict, craft a character, develop a plot, and leave readers with a happy ever after that's different every time - all in a tidy package. With practical exercises in plot, conflict, and character development, Crafting Category Romance will teach you how to use the rigid rules and expectations of the genre to your advantage and win a loyal readership following for life.

Not only did it talk about how writers could approach the craft but it really touched on the importance of romance and I would absolutely recommend
