Valerie Parvand her co-contributors, Jennie Adams, Helen Bianchin, Daphne Clair, Lilian Darcy, Robyn Donald, Kelly Ethan, Alexis Fleming, Elizabeth Rolls and Meredith Webber - all successful romance writers - answer the questions most often asked of published authors: how do I make my characters live; my dialogue feels flat, how can I fix it; how did you begin writing romance novels; how do I make sure my book hits the right emotional heights; can I do anything to market my manuscript, and many more. There are examples of writing to analyse with the help of the contributors, lists of recommended reading, and links to interesting and useful websites.
