Romancing the Story: Writing Romance, Storytelling, and Book Structure

Ep 1 - The Power of Love and Reading Romance


Listen Later

Romance is a key ingredient to almost every story. Whether it be the focal point or a sub-plot, characters seek to find love in some form or another. In the inaugural episode, Sarah gives a personal story as a reader and champions the case for reading romance, both in general and during dark times.

Spoiler alert: It's pretty much about love, connection, and female empowerment.

After all, HEA is only a page away. Huzzah!
