My name is Cupid Valentino

fabad21adtrk2.gifWell it wouldn’t be Valentine’s Day unless we touched on some romance writing, would it? A collection of tips and stories on the art of writing about l-u-v, which is over a billion dollar a year industry by the way, in case you’re some loser pooh-poohing it right now:
“What is This Thing?” episode of This American Life: Inside the Romance Industry (check out the 2005 archive for the show and segment), wherein Robin Epstein visits the convention of the Romance Writers of America.
Harlequin also offers classes on how to write romance fiction, plus very detailed writers’ guidelines.
If you’re a romance novel but your friend aren’t very understand, you are not alone. Behold, the Romance Writer Weblog Ring.
Hey menfold (and ladyfolk): still haven’t found that special somebody a giftie for tonight? Star in your own romance novel.
Finally, it’s not so much romance writing, but Greg Bloom writes about young writers in love…with their writing. Le sigh.
