What Makes Romance? #giveaway

March 18, 2024 by Amy R Anguish

What makes a romance a … well, a romance? Of course, when I started writing, I didn’t really care that there were standards and expectations. I simply wrote what I thought made a good story. And, surprisingly enough, I ended up getting published anyway. But through the years, and the direction of some good editors, […]

Of Books and Babies

February 8, 2024 by Milla Holt

Of Books and Babies

Books and babies have a lot in common. Many strong emotions surround the impending arrival of a baby. Hope. Excitement. Very hard labour. Panic! Tears. And, finally, sweet, sweet relief. And more tears. It’s the same with how a book comes into the world. The process of bringing it forth can be messy and tough. […]

Loss

November 25, 2023 by Merrillee Whren

  LOSS. The word even sounds sad to me, unless you are trying to lose weight. Then it is a happy thing. When I was looking for a photo to use for this post, dozens of photos of people with scales, measuring tapes, and skinny blue jeans were the results of my search. I finally […]

More Than Enough

November 10, 2023 by Jaycee Weaver

More Than Enough

Part of a romance author’s writing process involves getting inside our characters heads and understanding how they think. One of the most important parts of this process is asking, “what is his/her lie?” A”lie” is the false belief they live with that shapes how the he or she reacts to situations and other characters. Overcoming […]

So… Why is He Still Single?

October 18, 2023 by Milla Holt

So... Why is He Still Single?

I’ve only ever had one boyfriend in my life, and I married him. I was his first girlfriend, too. That may sound romantic, and it is, in a way. But since we met when I was thirty and he was thirty-four, it also means we both had many, many years of loneliness. I felt like […]

Stories Told Through Texts…Plus Giveaway

September 18, 2023 by Angela Ruth Strong

I didn’t set out to include a whole chapter of texts in my upcoming Christmas collection, We Three Kings, and I honestly didn’t even know if it would be allowed. However, it helped to quickly show connection between characters over a span of time, which is important when writing shorter forms of fiction. My editor […]
