In this one-of-a-kind resource, you'll find more than a list of tropes or broad genre fiction advice.
The Romance Writer's Encyclopedia Series breaks down our method for categorizing tropes into four types of framework tropes - Character Tropes, Storyline Tropes, Setting Tropes, and Relational Tropes.
Romance Storyline Tropes includes detailed entries on favorite romance tropes like Accidental Marriage, Runaway Bride, Marriage of Convenience, Fake Relationship, Time Travel, and more.
But this is more than a trope list - it's an encyclopedia!
Each encyclopedia entry includes an introduction to the trope itself, as well as information on why readers love the trope, what expectations exist in the stories, pitfalls that authors need to avoid, and common plot devices used. We'll cover how the these storyline tropes play into the conflict and theme of the story.
Plus, we'll show you how to use a Storyline Trope in a way that still feels fresh and interesting!
Having your characters locked in a room together isn't enough to make it a "Forced Proximity" romance that readers will love - but we'll tell you what will. And then we'll do it for Marriage Pacts, Matchmakers Gone Wrong, and more.
Romance Storyline Tropes is designed to be used at every stage of planning, writing, and publishing your books. If used effectively, this book will help you write a romance that readers will love, but also help you market that book to get it into the hands of readers who will devour it.
We've studied thousands of books and movies, polled readers and studied the market to understand not just which Storyline Tropes work - but WHY they work and why readers love them. And knowing why they work means you can put them to work for you.
Harness the power of Storyline Tropes to make your book marketable, multi-dimensional, and satisfying so readers will come back again and again.
