I would love to look at your NaNoWriMo! I’m sure it will be amazing!

I think some Christians do have different standards, but I guess for me, I wouldn’t even have them kiss before marriage. That’s just personal though, I think it really does depend on the person and what they are comfortable with. Only up to a point though, because the Bible does address certain things. Although everyone certainly fails somewhere. It’s so cool that you are tackling that issue!

That’s a really good test of whether it is too far or not! I shall use it.

So, I feel like I should explain my plot a little bit. There’s this girl who’s fiance dies. Through a series of events, she is forced to marry a man she doesn’t love. Most of the book is spent having her struggle with grief and trusting God in all circumstances. She wears her fiance’s sweatshirt at several different points in the book after he has died, but I have yet to decide whether or not it’s also while she’s married to the other guy. 99% of the romance is between her and her husband, just learning how to love again, or deciding if she can love again. (the poor girl can never really catch a break)

I love the Scarlet Pimpernel so much!!! That book was the one that kinda paved the way for me to be a hopeless romantic, or at least showed me I was. Love that book! 🙂

I would say my book has a plot, really quite a bit, but the plot exists for there to be romance, not a plot that allows for romance. Perhaps I should spend more time trying to develop the plot and characters than the romance. I am learning so much from being here. It is so cool!
