Tips On New Contemporary Romance Novels Writing

By Kerri Stout


Romance novels always leave you in a state that you want to read more and more of them. Sometimes they make you feel like you can write your own new contemporary romance novels only to realize that you don't know how to. If you have the qualities of a great writer then applying these tips will see you on your way to publish your first novel very soon.

This genre has a great following that comes with very high expectations. If you author a book, the readers expect a certain level of performance. Your name as an author is your brand and thus you need to create something that the readers can associate with and that they cannot get enough of.

The characters of the novel play a major role in determining what reception the novel will get from the public. Gradually developing the setting of the novel by introducing the characters in the early chapters and making them a force to reckon with will be great for your novel. Avoiding predictability of the next course of action for the characters should be avoided at all costs.

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.

Create an emotion of love from your readers for your hero or heroine in the first three chapters. Make them to be loved and get compassion from the readers. What they do and say in the beginning is what will be judged of your characters and whatever impression you give readers of your major characters will most likely not be changed even when you change it later in the book

Your targeted readers should determine the age of the characters you use. The readers want a character they can relate with. If you are writing a book for teenagers you need to write one based on teenage love with dialogue appropriate to that age. The characters for teenagers should be 18 to 24 years of age. Above this age the character you create will be targeting adult readers. What you write should be believable

Every good romance novel has a great end to it. You can choose to end the story as per the expectation of your readers that is, the main characters getting together happily or make an unfortunate turn of events such as the one in the famous Romeo and Juliet book. The end to your new contemporary novels is what will be remembered and most likely your book will be rated on. Make it outrageous.
