Writing Romance

Bookmark This Page

Writing RomanceI’ve always wanted to write a romantic love story. Not the harlequin romance type – something a little more fantasy oriented. Romance as a genre doesn’t interest me. It’s not the type of world I like to wrap around myself when I’m looking to escape. It’s not fantastical enough. When I have free time, and I need to escape, I like to crawl into other worlds or write some for myself. In each one, though, romance is always one of the draws for me.

I’m in love with love! It doesn’t matter if it’s the love between a gully dwarf and a wizard or something a little less arcane. Love crosses genres and manifests itself in different ways but the real essence of it is always magical and constant. I love love and although I’m not currently penning any romance to read, I do write here every day. That’s enough to make me smile! What makes you smile?

I used to write "romantic" stories for a local bbs years ago :) I also did a "dear abby" type thing as well there.. heehee.. it was a lot of fun.
I have added you for sure on my site now so you should have access again!
I think you should start a story, I will add to it, send it back and so on and see what we make? what do you think? sound like fun?

See, now one might THINK that, but in reality my boss would kick my ass if I published work without Cupid's being able to capitalize on it . .. especially when I must use company time to do it!
