Alex’s comments from the Romcom With The Emphasis on Com group.

If you can be bold enough to categorise it as humour then at least it means you won't be lost among thousands of others, as not much finds it's way into that box. Sadly, not many readers do either!

Maybe it's time to take a stand! If only I knew how...

I like the title of the group, but it's very quiet around here!

Here's a question: why do we have so much trouble labelling books as RomCom? It doesn't appear anywhere as a recognised category, not even as a subgenre of either Humour or Romance.

And yet, in the movie world, Rom Com is well established. Most films with Hugh Grant in, for starters - Four Weddings, Notting Hill. Last year, About Time grossed $89M.

Why not the same market in books?
