Save Your Money:
I eagerly awaited the arrival of this book and when it finally came, I went straight to the contents looking for the chapter that would give real technical advice on Romance Novel writing. It ain't there. Just a bunch of fluff from published authors that is of no real help.
If you're looking for "how to" articles, do a Google search and pull up some real helpful writing tips. Don't spend your money on this book.
Kathryn's Advice Worked for Me:
I picked up the book at the mall and skimmed through it. Although there was a lot in there that didn't interest me there was a lot that did. It gave a lot of helpful information on how to develop your book for the new markets. Her advice worked. I sold my first book in 2001, my second in 2002 and I sold a third book this January. Her formulas and methods worked for me. While they may not be helpful to everyone she has my sincerest thanks for guiding me into being a published author.
