I think @zee and @arindown made good points here. I read this thread a long time ago, and been trying to figure out how to help. Okay, here I go~
- I don’t know what country you’re from or your age, but do you happen to be a minor when it comes to crimes of a sexual locus (i.e., rape, assault, etc.)? If so, then in my opinion, it may be…

Arlet replied to the topic What romances would you recommend? in the forum Romance Writers 3 years, 8 months ago
Okay, I’m really confused by some things in this thread (and sub-forum in general). ^^;; I’m past adolescence and writing romance, so I guess part of my confusion is coming from this angle.
What on earth do you all mean by “weird stuff” and “kissing,” or am I clueless? By “kissing,” are you talking graphic description of one of the many ways a…[Read more]

Hi! I haven’t been on this forum in a little while, and am pleased to meet another Christian romance writer. 😀
The only familiar name I see on your list is Melanie Dickerson. I read four or five of her fairytale retellings before I couldn’t keep myself interested. She writes historical romance and YA as far as I recall. What do you enjoy about…[Read more]

Whoa, that’s a lot of potential for conflict within this one family, Ella! Plus the Race going on… whoo, boy. I can just imagine that the stakes (and tension) are about to rise up from the stewing. 😀

Arlet replied to the topic A Different Ethnicity in the forum Themes 4 years, 5 months ago
I think great points were brought up here, and thought I’d put in a couple cents.
I’d rather see so-called minority/diverse characters be individuals. This may come from being a mixed-ethnic (not biracial) woman, but I really. Don’t. Care. For. Race. I want to read about people, not groups. From what I noticed growing up, individuals often behave…[Read more]

Hi Hope Ann, I liked the way you addressed this in the newsletter. I don’t have much that I’d want to add to that. I guess for your question, how I would handle this, hm. Well, I can give an example by the speculative romance my fiancé and I are working through. As a young boy he admired bits of the world-building behind the Sailor Moon 90s…[Read more]

@sarahfi — Oh, yay, glad to hear you think my idea sounds fun! Ah, if I knew what my strengths were, I’d like to offer help as well. Actually, if there’s something I could do for you, please let me know! Thanks for your kindness. <3
@kimlikesart — Eh? I had to look up what you were referring to by name… and then I saw that my forename is…[Read more]
