I did a livestream last Saturday: #Scrivener for #Romance Writing . Available on demand for subscribers of the #RomanceClass Twitch channel

I start with a short intro to the software, then a 30-minute demo of how you could use it to write romance fiction, then a q&a.

No new #RomanceClass anytime soon but the textbook has been updated and I did an intro lecture on Twitch (watch on demand when you subscribe to http://kilig.pub/twitch).

And the last 2 are #RomanceClass books.
Your Place Next Year by Mina V. Esguerra. Short and steamy, and a great length if you're looking for a novella!

Love to Meet You by Jay E. Tria is also steamy and so good. Korean celeb LI, falling in love with a 'regular' person. Def. rec!

Thought of explaining some things about #RomanceClass bit by bit for Instagram Reels and Tiktok, and here’s the one about the heat level scale we use. Heat level 0 is not necessarily about age, and is respectful of readers/authors who prefer reading/writing this level. Some recs too:
