This episode is a bit different... because it's part writing prompt, part lesson on writing and storytelling craft. I've spent the first few episodes of this podcast talking about some of the business aspects of the romance novel industry, which are all super important. However, the business strategy ultimately means nothing if you can't deliver a story that readers are craving. So I thought one of the best ways to demonstrate how to create that kind of story was to share one of my own. And then break down for you some of the key things that make this the kind of story that people want to read. So gather round and settle in for grown-up storytime!
