What makes a romance novel exciting other than the obvious romance and relationship?
Q. Other than sex scenes, the relationship and the romance what makes a romance novel exciting? What background story or plot line makes a good romance novel?
Asked by R. R. Pearson - Tue Dec 16 03:04:00 2008 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments

A. what makes a good romance novel is what the reader does not know. something the characters only know, if you know what i mean? its something that is later revealed to the audience, that give the plotline a sort of suspense. its the descrition of the Male character. most people read books to escape the reality of life. So if a woman does not have a man in her life, she turns to a book, where her dream man is there. So basically, every detail about the male sex

What are some teenage romance novel ideas?
Q. I'm planning on writing a teenage romance novel, and i need some good ideas/story plots. Anyone have any ideas? I'm willing to devote as much time to writing this novel as possible. I have read Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Series, and I enjoyed them very much. Anyone have any similar ideas, but very different at the same time? Give me your ideas and suggestions!

A. You should do two people that can't be together because of some reason but they love each other and can't live without each other. First maybe she gets captured and one of the people who captured her falls in love with her. She thinks she hates him but slowly she starts to love him too. I would read that book in a heartbeat. I really hope you publish that book if you write it.

I write historical romance with interracial characters. Where and how can I better promote my work?
Q. My niche is historical romance involving interracial characters, mostly, African-American/Blacks and a person of another race. Hey, how do you think my people got to be all colors? My latest release charts the romance between a free African American woman and an Oneida Indian man during the American Revolution in New York state. I like exploring where Blacks were during key events in history. Where and how can I promote this sub-genre? My publishers had faith in me and took on the story. Now I want others to enjoy it too, not just sit on a shelf.

A. Your stories sound intriguing and original! Here are a few ideas: Join RWA (Romance Writers of America) if you haven't already. Utilize some of their resources - conferences, local chapters, newsletters, their monthly magazine, the RWR (which you can buy ad space in.) Can you afford an ad in Romantic Times? Have your books been submitted to Romantic Times reviewers? There are reviewers who there who specifically read multi-cultural/African-Am erican romances. Have you submitted copies of your books to other reviewers? There are tons online. Realms of Love (I believe is a Yahoo group) and Joyfully Reviewed (another Yahoo group.) Don't underestimate the power of the small online romance groups. They are a mighty bunch and word… [cont.]
