Writing New Contemporary Romance Novels Tips

By Kerri Stout


The interesting nature of romance novels leave you craving for more. They may inspire your imagination to the extent you feel you can easily come up with your own new contemporary romance novels only to be limited by your limited know how of how to go about it. Improving your skills is a journey and the following guidelines will keep you on the right path.

Expectation among the many romance genre readers is very high and you have to publish a novel that satisfies them. Any low quality publication will not be tolerated by the readers and negative reviews on it will follow. It is crucial to write your best in every new book you publish not to fall below their expectations and end up with a loyal fan club of readers who will be more than ready to buy all your new work

A book can't be written without the main characters. All the main characters should be created in the first two or three chapters and it is imperative you make them as fascinating as possible to afford the readers affection. Give them the best qualities you can think of but not overstated and you will have the readers reading to the last page. The characters should have consistent character throughout the book but that does not mean they be predictable.

Plot of your story brings the second tip. Don't take too long in making the plot. By the end of your second chapter anyone reading your book should be able to say what the story is based on or what is to be expected. Your characters are enhanced by your plot so make it great.

Starting where the story starts is the way to go. The first page in the first chapter should start with a emotion filled scene that sets the rest of the story. The scene should be very interesting and full of intensity to make your readers squirm. Some readers will not even read the second page of a boring first page romance novel.

The emotions that a reader can identify with should be developed in the first few chapters of the novel. The heroine or hero should be part of these emotions for a better effect. The initial impression given to the reader about a certain character will not change at advanced stages of reading. Giving a lasting impression is essential to a good novel. The emotions, in our case, are love and thus the love should be developed from an early stage.

The target audience and the age of your characters ought to be in the same bracket. If you are targeting the young adults, then your main characters should be young adults themselves. This ensures there is no mismatch between the audience and the message in the novel. It also ensures the audience can relate with what is happening to different characters properly. The dialogue and events in the story should be those that can be easily related to real life situations.

The ending should be one to remember for a high rating. Choose it be either an unfortunate event happening or the two lovers getting together. Conclude your new contemporary novels in an outrageous way.
