Create Sizzling Conflict Between Your Hero and Heroine – A to Z of Romance Writing
When you’re writing a romance, there’s one thing that readers expect – that the hero and heroine will eventually work it out and get together. Whether it’s a happily ever after, or a happy for now situation, there’s a satisfying relationship resolution. So, what keeps the reader ploughing through your pages? Conflict! Without it, the story is predictable and there’s no reason to keep reading. I remember when I first started writing, I thought every element of conflict I added sounded too contrived. But, now, three books on, I have figured out that the key to making believable conflict is to ensure you’ve backed it up.
Types of conflict
There are 2 types of conflict in a romance. One initially brings the couple together and forces them to spend time with each other, the other threatens to keep them apart.
External: Also known as environmental. What’s happening outside the main character’s world that inevitably throws the two together at the start. This problem occurs at the start of the book and often it’s a shared problem between hero and heroine.
Internal: Also known as emotional. What is happening inside your character’s head that causes them to want to run the other way? What problems are they battling that make it seem a happy ending is impossible? This problem might not present itself until after the two characters admit their feelings for each other.
Here’s the kicker, the internal problem only comes to light due to the external problem. So, the main character has been pushing the internal problem deep down inside, until the external one forces them to face it and grow.
For example …
Jenny’s had a horrible childhood. She was abandoned by a father who was addicted to gambling. [Internal conflict setup] She’s forced to work a case with the owner of a Casino [external conflict] as a result of her job as a detective. When sparks fly between them, she tries to deny her feelings because she doesn’t want to end up with someone like her father and be abandoned all over again [Internal Conflict].
I know it’s cliché but it should help understanding how the conflict works together.
If you still need help, try this handy worksheet I’ve created. Unlike the conflict you’ll be creating between your main characters, this comes with no strings attached.

Baby Boomer Love – Getting Romance Right for Mature Aged Protagonists
I’m happy to host this wonderful guest post by Jonna Holston, author of the book Toggle (one). Thank you Jonna for taking the time to write about such a fascinating topic as part of my A to Z of Romance Writing Series. Read more about Jonna at the end of the article.
Baby Boomer Love
If you are writing romance then chances are that a large percentage of your readership will be of the baby boomer age. Infrequently is a romance novel written specifically for this generation, so in rarity we find value. If written well the rewards are great.
This is the population who met the Beatles, the Woodstock women who eased the way toward sexual freedom. They lived through the sixty’s and now they’re in their sixties. If you are interested in writing about and for the boomers then, author, know thy sub-genre.
Writing an older woman protagonist has undeniable appeal. In her you discover a character of complexity and depth. She has confidence, wisdom… experience. Imagine the possibilities for characters, setting and plot.
Feel the energy between a silver cougar and her prey. Is her motivation lust for his hard body or is she damaged and hiding her need? Is he drawn to her mystique, living MILF fantasies or does he plan to steal her money? What do they talk about? Where is the conflict? Who gets hurt and who is healed?
A similarly aged couple finds a second chance love. Can two households merge? Do their adult children worry about the wills or cringe in disgust with each kiss. Which is worse? Which is real? Can their love survive their offspring?
An older woman is polyamorous. Is she honest or deceitful? What will the neighbors say about multiple partners? Would she care? Will her lovers meet in conflict then end in a threesome?
What about writing physical limitations and the body image issues that millennials have yet to discover? Tread lightly here lest you break the spell. Use softer images, shimmering fabric catching candlelight or try something risky like a shared vape under moonlight and they end up naked in the lake.
Her body is no longer perfect. You might describe the grace of her movement, the curve of a shoulder or the shape of his arms but consider what point when physical description must yield to expressions of feeling. The softness of her breast, the warmth of his skin, the magic of losing self-awareness in the moment, the urgency in knowing that this could be the last time either one experiences this feeling of love in their lifetime.
Age creeps on, choices lessen. Lovers sicken and die. When you write a character that a boomer identifies with she escapes more readily in your work.
Once again she’s made beautiful, desirable and loved.
They value this feeling for its rarity. They are greatly mindful of the moments ahead and appreciate each one all the more.
If you wish to write such a romance, understand that She is not your grandmother’s grandmother. She is Women’s Liberation in the Age of Aquarius. She’s the bra burner, the Great Mother and the flower child of love.
Do her justice. Write her truth. Write her well.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
So that’s who I am, an old lady from tough places who lives in the gentile south and I’m not altogether sure that this hasn’t been one big joke on me… but a good one. How do I spend my spare time? I walk in the woods with my dog. It’s where I ground. It’s where I worship. And I write… it’s in the blood… I have stories, some real, some imagined and some embellished. What I’ve learned from observing the darker side of life is that nothing matters more than kindness and love.
Mine has been an incredible life in the best possible time and place. Sure I’m getting older, but I love life more than ever and as Sinatra sang, “The best is yet to come…” So I write about the magic of love and touch. What’s the best part about writing of love? I assure you, is the research and I don’t mind direct questions related to this subject, something like, “Jonna, is it true that at your age you still have an active love life?”
“Why, yes. Thank you so much for asking.” Because nothing in the world is dearer than affection, a simple touch from another, holding someone’s hand, a lovely kiss, these are the ways we connect. And making love with another human is the greatest pleasure of all.

The Bold and the Beautiful – Do all Romance Characters Need to Be Perfect?
Whether we like to admit it, or not, we’ve all fallen prey to a book boyfriend (or girlfriend) or two. And there are many of these characters, especially in romance, that are described as ‘extremely attractive’, ‘well built’, or my favourite, ‘hubba-hubba’ – I could go on, but I won’t. The point is, that it seems for a romance to survive the mainstream market, the main protagonists need to fit the general bill of what it means to be attractive – visually perfect. Just have a look at the Disney cartoons, for example. Mainstream loves perfection.
But do we need it to enjoy a good romance?
Before I answer that, I want to think about why we love perfection in our stories. These are the reasons I can come up with:
Escape – we want a fantasy escape from our perceived mediocre lives, so why not imagine a perfect body?
Media – we’ve been conditioned by the media to like perfection. Victoria’s Secret models anyone?
History – it favours the bold, and apparently the beautiful. James Dean, Marilyn Monroe … they might have died young, but they’re lives are forever burned into our memories.
Relatability – it’s a smaller step to imagine yourself as a beautiful person in love than ugly. We all think we’re beautiful to some degree. Likewise, it’s easier to imagine falling in love with someone attractive than not. That’s just science. (I recently wrote about a post on attraction and how we naturally look for those who are symmetrical.)
Do you have another reason why we love perfection? Please comment.
Not every real person is perfect. In fact, I don’t believe anyone is perfect.
As authors, we’re creating new content every day that will make history. And we have a responsibility to the new generations to break the habits of old and get people thinking about love in different lights. Despite this nice, fluffy idea that I have about us all holding hands and singing kumbaya, the simple fact is that sexy people sell books. I’ll admit that. And I also admit that I want to sell books, so there in lies the conundrum.
How can we change the status quo without sacrificing our book’s marketability?
Ease up on the description and focus on the actions. Apart from looking hot in a wet t-shirt, what are your characters doing to make us feel?
Change just one thing. That old same, same but different idea. Make your character relatable but then change something to make them more realistic. Make them older, have a disability. Look at Me before You by JoJo Moyes, the love interest is a quadriplegic. It can be done.
Give them flaws.
Make the terms you use to describe attractiveness subjective. Because one person’s idea of beautiful can be different from someone else. Instead of saying, his chiselled jaw and model perfect body, say how looking at him made her feel … how did she react at the sight of him?
Help me out with understanding where everyone stands by answering this anonymous poll

How to Build a Romance Thread that Leaves an Emotional Impact
When I started writing romance, I was totally confused with how to plot one. Sure, I’ve read a few and I had a bit of an idea that girl meets boy, they like each other, there’s conflict, they get over it and happy ending. But, there are so many other elements, that I often get lost, throw my hands in the air and give up. Then I discovered the theory of story beats, and haven’t really looked back.
What is a beat?
A term coined by screenwriters, beats are what novel writers like to call … wait for it … wait for it … turning points! They’re usually one sentence in length and describe the next important thing that is happening in your story. Screenwriters are so good at simplifying things down, that I found it an easy way to understand the structure of a romance story.
Blake Snyder from the Save the Cat fame is probably the first person I ever read about who structures stories in this way (in fact, I believe he’s where it all originated). I highly recommend his books, but I warn you, you will never watch a movie the same way again.
I’ve put together some simple plot points for romance that I use when writing a story. They’re simple, yet effective. And because I’m a bit of a pantser, I like to refer back to it when I’m stuck.
Romance Beats
POV character starts off against love (has a fear) but secretly wants it.
Meet Cute—They meet someone who will fulfil what they are lacking, but they’re not yet ready to accept it
Forced to spend time together. Barriers break down but they have different goals.
Give in to feelings—temporarily gets love.
Forces try to keep them apart—something happens that makes them realise their original fear.
Lose Love.
Something’s gotta give … something happens that makes them realise they want the love, even if it means changing. Protagonist makes a personal sacrifice.
Something happens to show that they are now actively fighting to win love back—something tries to keep them apart but this time they win.
Love wins & happily ever after or happy for now.
Tips for building a romance thread into your story at all the right places

Sometimes, when you’re writing a story with romantic elements, it’s hard to tell which romantic bits fit in with which action bits. There’s rising action and falling action. There’s turning points, obstacles and climax’s. The same goes for the external arc, as for the internal. If you can match the integral plot points from both the major plot and the subplot, you’ll end up with an explosive storyline that will leave your readers wanting more. Imagine getting that final climax moment in the action sequence complimenting the state of the relationship.
I also discovered that if you put together two sides of the plotting arc, one for romance, one for action, it can be seen as a heart! How fitting for romance. The worksheet is perfect for writers of romantic suspense, or any other plot type with external events that effect the characters at the same time as a romantic subplot.

Rules of Attraction – How to build attraction between two characters
Welcome to the first post in my romance writing from A to Z series. To kick us off, I’m tackling something that every single romance or love story has to have – attraction. From Fifty Shades of Grey to Pride and Prejudice, there’s so many different levels of attraction that it’s hard to know which one suits the story you’re about to write. I’ve spent some time scouring the web for information and this is what I’ve come up with. I’ve even put it into a handy downloadable worksheet for you to workshop your characters’ attraction.
What is attraction?
For the purpose of this article, I’m talking about romantic attraction. That good ol’ feeling of being drawn to another person, needing to be with them.
What makes someone attracted to another?
Similarity – We apparently go for those with similar genes to ourselves. It makes for easy development of offspring. Don’t believe me? Read this article.
Symmetry – A person who’s face is symmetrical is appealing. I read that this stems from our body knowing that their cells can split exactly in half. Once again, easy for making perfect babies. (Not too sure how accurate these are)
Status – Internal and external. Is someone more confident, do they make us laugh? Can they provide for you?
Smell – From pheromones to something that triggers an emotional response, smell can play an important role in what you find attractive. Think about the smells you like and if these connect to something in your past.
Sex appeal – Sometimes that raw animal sex appeal is what get’s you going. This can be different for everyone and subjective. Is it the way she licks her lips? Are her girly bits more girly? Is his jaw square, shoulders broad, brow prominent? Is he impeccably groomed well? Something will trigger that primal desire deep down inside. Read this for the 4 key elements of sex appeal, and read this to find out about the science behind the sex appeal of dark personalities (Why are narcissists more physically attractive?). This is a particularly interesting article if you write the classic dark, broody, Alpha male.
How to build attraction between two characters
Download this free printable worksheet to help you work out the attraction your characters feel for each other.
To know how to get from A to B with your characters, you first need to understand the levels of attraction. I’ve read a few articles around the place about this subject and have come up with the following steps. For the sake of simplicity, I’m going with Girl and Boy, but this can easily be any gender.
Girl sees Boy
Girl likes what she sees – Physical attraction. This sparks lust. Primal instincts.
Girl learns about the Boy – Does he have a great job? Do they have the same beliefs? Can he provide? Does his status appeal to her survival instincts?
Girl connects with the Boy – Emotional connections are made. Does the Girl trust the Boy?
Girl wants the same things as the Boy – Kids, marriage, little house on the beach with a yapping dog to share? Is their life headed down the same path?
Girl falls in love with Boy
Girl obsesses about the Boy – Okay, this is an extra step. This can happen instead of falling in love. Perhaps at stage 5, Boy realises he wants different things and Girl doesn’t accept … it turns into Fatal Attraction.
How can you make sure your reader finds your characters attractive?
Just because you might really like the sight of a bearded, tattooed guy with plugs in his ears doesn’t mean that your readers will. Yes, it’s nice to have something different, but you need to be weary that you aren’t excluding a large portion of your readership. The best thing to do in this instance, is to think about your sub genre and what your market looks like. Who is your ideal reader? If she happens to be a rockabilly-Sons-of-Anarchy-loving chick then go right for it. Make your fella look and behave the way you think your reader will like him to. But if you’re hoping to sell your book to fans of Nicholas Sparks … you might have to rethink your strategy.

Book Review – Truly, Madly, Guilty by Liane Moriarty
This book starts off with a bang. Well, actually, it’s almost like a gunshot going off and you see the bullet wound, but you don’t see the gun, hear the shot, or in fact even know it was a gunshot at all. You see the metaphoric blood seeping and are left wondering for three-quarters of the book, what on earth caused it?
There was a barbecue, you see, and something terrible happened. But what? All we know is that it’s thrown the lives of three very different couples and their families into disarray. You’ve got Erika and Oliver, the seemingly stuffy accountants. The happy-go-lucky musician Clementine and her husband Sam. Boisterous Vic and his sexy wife Tiffany. They weren’t really friends, but friends of friends. And the barbecue went well except for …
Yep. Folks, if you don’t like cliffhangers you’ll hate this book. It’s entirely one big fat giant cliffhanger. But Liane Moriarty weaves the story so well, you read it anyway.
The story is told from multiple POVs and snippets before and after the barbecue. By the end of it, you’re so embroiled in the characters lives that you find yourself in a place you didn’t expect, and sympathising with characters you didn’t quite like at the start. From the hoarder parent, to the ex-poledancer, I definitely think the female characters got more attention and there were a few unanswered questions with the men I would’ve liked to hear more about, but perhaps this would’ve made it too heavy.
From a writer’s point of view, I found the structure in this book fascinating. Moriarty doesn’t adhere to the usual three act linear structure, and there are scenes in there that definitely left me wondering, ‘what’s the point of this?’. But once I ended it, I discovered that it was as much a book about people as it was about what happened. A classic example of a character driven story. Read it if you feel you need help writing believable characters.
I give this book four out of five droplets.
Truly, Madly, Guilty comes out on July 20th in Australia. Visit the Pan Macmillan website for more details.

How to Write Romance – from A to Z

I’ve learned a lot over the last year, and am now writing a contemporary romance that I’m going to pitch to publishers and agents at the yearly conference in August. What better way to celebrate, than to do a blog feature on how to write romance, because it’s not as easy as it sounds. Here’s what I have so far:
