Writing Romantic Fiction

Romance Love Stories

Robyn Donald, Daphne Clair

Authors: Robyn Donald, Daphne Clair
Print type: BOOK

Description:

Romantic novels account for half the mass market fiction published in English. This invaluable handbook is for writers wanting to succeed in the popular genre. Both hugely successful authors Daphne Clair (aka Laurey Bright, Clarissa Garland, Claire Lorel) and Robyn Donald have each written more than fifty books. This book is the product of their experience and courses they have conducted in romance writing. Included are sections on characterisation; motivation and sources of tension; structure, plots and subplots; pace and focus; setting; language; emotional impact; and fiction techniques. Uniquely combining two strikingly different writers' styles, this book follows the premise that there is no one way to write — rather, that there are many techniques to learn.
