AUTHOR WRITING TIP
Learn on the job by writing the books you love to read - and keep writing! Don't agonise over the advice in 'How to' books! Find a writing partner or join one of the excellent romance-writing web-loops for support and 'good cheer'. But understand that publishing is market-driven. Adopt a professional attitude - if you want to be published writing is NOT a hobby! (It's an obsession!).Above all, ENJOY writing.
