Bullet Reviews:
That was a lot of fun! A short, pretty well-written manual on how to write an awful romance, it actually gave some good advice (authors, don't be brats about negative reviews!), along with some funny commentary. I'm no romance connoisseur but just reading the urban fantasy and young adult genres proves several of the points in the book. It's free today on Amazon so why not check it out?

Some of the desciptions of the romanc sub-genres made me laugh. Did not really address the how to part of how to write an awful romance.

A very amusing tongue-in-cheek stroll through various romance sub-genres, and how easy it is to write for them as long as you don't mind being rubbish. Don't worry - most of the readers couldn't care less either.
