All About Love

Now let’s get to know you

Tell us a little about who you are and why you would like to write. This is your first assignment.

Assignment:

o Why do you want to write romance?
o Are you embarking on this course because you’d like to write a novel – or just to expand your mind and learn something new?
o If you’re set on a novel, do you have a place to write (even if it’s not exclusively yours?) Tell us where you’ll be writing.
o How will you fit writing into your busy schedule? When do you intend to write? Give us an idea of your proposed writing schedule.
o What are your strengths and weaknesses with regard to writing? Be honest here. What will help you to keep writing regularly? What will hinder you – physically, intellectually, emotionally?
o How will you overcome the problems that are likely to keep you from writing?
o What would you like our course to do for you?

Module One

This module is free. Don’t even think about it. Jump right in and start today. It’s about writing romance. In fact, it’s about writing anything - well, perhaps not manuals on automobile maintenance - but anything in the fiction line.

It forms your basic introduction to the writing life.

We will teach you how to find your own voice and write with fluency and conviction. Perhaps, most important of all, we will confirm your power to make the hearts of your readers beat that little bit faster.

Romance isn’t just about heroines and heroes. It’s about using the power of your unique voice to make your reader believe in the world you create for them.

This module, which prepares and leads you into both The Guide to Writing Romance and The Guide to Writing Lesbian Romance, consists of four short sections. We’ve designed it so that you’ll have fun trying a number of writing drills, while equipping yourself with skills.

The exercises will free your inner writer, develop confidence, banish self-conscious writing and grow your own writer’s voice.
