Procrastination, back-story dumps, head-hopping, weak emotional conflict, tired tropes...
If you've ever written, or tried to write a romance, you'll be familiar with these terms. We all make the same mistakes somewhere along the way!
Authors note: This is based on a series of blogs which became a workshop and I am now considering turning into a book. So, if you have questions or think there is a subject I should add or you have questions, let me know in the comments and I'll do my best to help while it's a WIP.

Nod my Head - A Writing Guide for Wattpad Writers
Do you find yourself writing he nodded, she shook her head, he shrugged, over and over again? It gets tedious, and doesn't help at all when it comes to pin pointing your character's actual emotions. So I've made a book using notes I've been collecting over a few years to help you chose an alternative way to show that your character is angry, or sad, etc, plus many other writing tips and resources. Doesn't, he blinked at his watch, read better than, he looked at his watch ? Doesn't, he slugged across the wet cement, read better than, he walked down the street slowly. Avoid the white room in your story and replace telling with showing to give your readers a much better experience. **** When Alice storms across the room instead of walks, we know she's angry. We're expecting suspense. We're waiting for the next action. Maybe she'l punch a wall? Shout at her friend? Much better than, Alice walked across the room angrily, which gives your reader nothing to imagine.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

Tangled Love
"You only live once." This is the overly used excuse that we use every time we make a decision and that's fine because it's true. This also goes with 'Love'. For once in our lives, we would eventually experience this love - the kind of love that just can't die. A love, though not being returned, we are still willing to take the risk. We expect that somehow, someday we will be rewarded. But how long can we give that love a chance? Are we really capable of giving so much without asking anything in return? Are we really capable of being happy, just seeing the person we love happy with someone else? How can we untangle something so twisted like LOVE? How can we survive without breaking? How can we live without hating? Brace yourself for it will be a long roller coaster ride to what we call 'HAPPINESS' - D A L E (myLovelymind) Cover by: @ShebaHanna 🎉Abgeschlossene Geschichte
Out of Reach (PUBLISHED)
PAPERBACK AVAILABLE ON AMAZON "Do not fall into her trap. She's playing tricks on you. Not everything you see is true. Do not invest any feelings in her; it will only cost you. She's like helium, and you're the balloon. At first, she'll fill you up, making you feel complete. It brings happiness; you feel like flying. But it doesn't last long; she'll leave you hanging. You may think you're still soaring, but it's only the wind. It's all part of her plan; do not be fooled. Don't say I didn't warn you." Her exes may have shared similar cautions with potential suitors, but the question remains: what leads them to perceive her that way? Is she truly as they describe? To uncover the real her, one must delve into the layers beneath the surface.
