But if it’s not kisses is it hisses in Romance Writing?
All right. You knew it was coming.. ... After the last post, you know you did.
Yes. Emancipated hamsters.
I nearly devoted this post to NOT letting them take over your romance novel. But I have done that twice already with regard to secondary hamsters…oops.. characters.

This post is about the development of hamster and hamster,
sorry, hero and heroine in romance writing. You see, no matter how sweet the little hamsters are…
kissing and that.. Please can you note…
his claw in her hair. Or maybe it is her claw in his, her being a bit of a beefer hamster? And him being kind of bouffoned?
The thing is, the point I am trying to make here–of course there is one–hamsters may look cute but even if Google doesn’t say so, my understanding is they will fight to the death over that last straw end, half a piece of peed on popcorn and who is having first turn of the wheel.
That is before we get anywhere near whose cage it is really.
The point is…imagine these hamsters were human, just for a second.
Okay?
I know I occasionally like to with my heroes and heroines…….
What are the hamsters doing? Well they are guarding themselves and their pissy little bit of turf.
Now, start imagining your hero and heroine that way.
Hmmm?
Enough said about what we need re character development arcs etc, etc, etc, and why?
With it, when writing it, should we let our hero and heroine go there willingly?
Or should we throw a few emancipated hamsters in their way?
PLEASE NOTE NOT HAMSTERS WERE HARMED IN THE WRITING OF THIS BLOG> WHEN IT COMES TO MY BOOKS AND MY HEROES AND HEROINES< THAT IS ANOTHER MATTER.
