Here on the Writing Tips Page I've put together some of the articles I've published on my Blog about the writing game and I've added some links you might find useful for writing advice and for contests...
I run regular workshops over on My Blog where you can join in, simply look to see what way I work, or you can come by and ask questions! It's widely agreed that the Romance Writing Community is the most friendly and helpful of writing communities so don't be afraid to ask questions and make friends, because we're as keen to welcome you as a newly published author as you are to get here!!!
And keep in mind that nothing is written in stone!!! It may just be that a combination of writing methods will work best for you - or that one tip from one author may work when another doesn't... Find what works for your personality and then run with it I say! Remember it's all about a well told story and an individual voice... There Is No Formula for writing category romance... No matter what anyone may tell you!!!!
New in 2009 I now have my very own Forum where you can share writing successes and disasters, the good days and the bad with fellow writer's ~ Just clink the link for Forum and sign up!
