Product Info Reviews

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty good.
Review: Offers straightforward and thoughtful information. Definately helpful for anyone interested in writing a romance novel. Would have preffered it not have the spiral binding but a small point since the book's content is solid.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Disappointing Unless You're a Complete Newbie
Review: The author provides pretty basic information in a rather general fashion (more breadth than depth.) The chapters are short and almost all of her examples come from her own books. There's a disk with electronic versions of the exercises, but they were saved in a funny format. Luckily, I knew to change them to text files so that I could open them up at least. If you're just starting out, then this might be a helpful guide. Your money is probably better spent joining RWA or buying Julie Beard's book (which I hear is good but have not yet purchased.)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good
Review: This book is a no-nonsense "get down to it" read. I have learned more about writing romances than I ever thought possible from one book! Well done.
