Compelling romances have compelling relationships.
The best romance novels feature interesting and engaging characters. Taking the time to consider the backstories and motivations of your main characters is key to a successful book. A common trope of romance novels is the "hate to love" relationship, where characters start on bad footing but end up in a sizzling relationship.
Join our live 90-minute interactive workshop, designed to empower you with the skills needed to craft exciting relationships that keep the audience turning pages! Then get expert feedback on your own characters.

What our Members Say About Our Courses
I've never felt so welcome and valued in a course before. Both teachers and students were so graceful towards one another from start to finish.
I enjoyed this course very much, and it has helped give me new things to think about when crafting my own work, regardless of genre. Thanks so much for putting it together!
One of the things I most wanted to improve was the scare factor and intense scenes, really building up that fear. And I thought the class helped with that a ton!
