Two short love stories
We have recently published two short stories Home Is Where The Heart Is by Debbie Pittel and Twirls of Red by Gillian Gilbride. Both were submissions to the optional exercise, Try it for yourself: Write a Love Story, in the free module of The Guide to Writing Romance.
If you have not yet done the free module please click here if you would like to do it. We have tweaked the free module slightly and placed it right upfront on the site so there is no need to log in to do it anymore.
And remember if you are busy writing at the moment or planning to write and need advice as far as motivation and you characters go please make use of our free service - Characters on the Couch.
Gabriel St Claire our resident shrink turns his attention to solving the problems and exploring the motivations of your fictional characters. Want to find out what makes your character tick? Email Gabriel today at
