Summary: Professional genre writing 101.
Review: Not much detailed ground is covered in this slim volume, but Estrada and Gallagher do show the novice romance writer the business ropes and how to best use them without strangling yourself in the process (something I wish more writing classes had done). This is the first book about romance writing I have read (and it will not be the last, of that I am sure), but it showed me that I still have much to learn about both the genre and the industry. Then again, one is always learning. Recommended.

Summary: Too basic
Review: There is nothing in this book that any person with common sense doesn't already know. I would reccomend getting The Idiot's Guide to getting Your Romance Published- by Julie Beard, instead.

Summary: Excellent practical advice for a novice like me
Review: This short book is full of good basic information including defining a romance novel and listing and describing the many types of romance novels. The authors provide guidelines for creating characters, developing plot, and writing dialogue. The basics of selling your novel are included, and there's even a section on what happens after you have a contract. Thanks to this book, I expect to have my own romance novel finished in a few months--then maybe I can quit my day job!
