RomanceClass2024 (?) signup form and Q&A

I’m asking people who might be interested in taking a future #RomanceClass to sign up here: RomanceClass signup. I have some ideas about how to do the next class, because we’re always changing it up a little bit, or introducing new challenges and bringing in new partners.

While I’m working on that, and planning my life, I’ll be answering some of the submitted questions on the form. PS Some questions are too specific, and the answers for those will be sent directly via email to the person who asked.

Is it okay if I join with a pseudonym? Do I need to post what I write somewhere?

Yes, it’s ok to use pen names. (“Mina V. Esguerra” is a pen name.) The usual run of #romanceclass requires several assignments to be submitted before the actual writing starts, and those are posted on our RomanceClass Discord server. You’ll be sent an invite to it if you’re not there yet.

If I’ve never had an experience being published, can I still try? 

Yes! I think the class works really well for people who are writing a novella for the first time. (And if you’ve already been published and know how to write a novella, you’ll find the class very beginner-level.)

Is it okay for me to retake the class?

Yes. (Note: this question was sent in by someone who had attended before and did not finish a manuscript and yes, it’s ok to join again and try to finish this or a new story.)

Interested to know more about the process of writing heat level 3

Glad you brought it up so I can plan a session around this!

[Will add more to the Q&A as the responses come in. Thank you!]
