What a coincidence…

Just as I refocus my work to hone my writing skills, I find myself inexorably drawn to the mythic romances of Sherrilyn Kenyon, the epic Elderling trilogies of Robin Hobb, not to mention the dark witty drama of Joss Whedon (I remain a long-suffering unofficial Spuffy shipper), the Galactican arcs of Ron Moore, and the terminally addictive heroines of the Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Let me not be lost to drown in works not my own!

Let me merely dwell awhile in the pain of the readers who feed me, so that I may aid them to their glorious salvation!

And all with just a few newsletters and product announcements. ;^)

My personal favorite euphemism for romance novels: “housewife porn.” Learned that one in a class on writing novels, no less. (From a fellow student and romance novel devotee, not the teacher.)

Great post! Time to dig deep in my well of Nora Roberts and start applying it to the copy I’m working on right now…
