Formula romance

It is like zero degrees celcius. And i have to finish my south african romance novel which i hope to submit to sapphire press - our version of mills and boon. Wish me broken pens and blotched pages.

Wow! I got that job offer I was waiting months for.

Yeah, i got it and aced the interview. Only to learn from a very honest employee that the position is temporary. I was very dissappointed.

Hi and thank you for reading my blog. If you are an aspiring ya author, why not leave a comment? I recently decided to start studying chapter ones of popular ya novels. I have no idea how to add a link, but i googled free excerpts from ya novels. I look for things like voice, character introduction, setting and writing style. What works for you?
