ROMANCE CHARACTERS ARE THANKFUL FOR....
We have been around a long...long...looooong time, and have
had many years to reflect on the blessings we have in life. As authors, we are especially thankful for
being able to share our thoughts and stories with all of you. Having said that, we decided that since it is spring in our part of the world, it is time to be thankful. Don't have to wait for a holiday to count blessings. Only this time we are asking our characters what they are grateful for...
THE LONG LINGERING LOOK ~
You know that look, when the hero and heroine stare longingly into each
others' eyes, wanting each other, daring the other to make the first contact,
withdrawing out of fear of rejection, or because of the tremendous obstacle
that stands in their way. So, all they
can do is look, passion blazing in that look, and with Zi at the helm that long
could last for pages.
TOUCH ~ We are talking about that very first touch, the one
where they accidently brush up against one another, and all the sizzling heat
that erupts in that solitary moment. Ang
likes writing about touch more than anything.
It is a moment, a second, an instant, that lingers within several
paragraphs exploring the reactions of breathlessness, intensity, heat and, as
always, instantaneous desire.
CONFLICT ~ Yup, that
is what we wrote. The conflict within a
story creates sexual tension, the tug and pull of yearning for the intimacy
that they can't have, dare not have, but want....want...want. Even if they give into that passion early in
the story, something will pull them
apart immediately after fulfillment, and then the fury of desire builds again,
deliciously.
HANDS ~ Their perfect
hands, rough or gentle, slender or large, long-fingered or blunt tipped,
doesn't matter. Their hands survey
muscles and curves, textures and possibilities.
Hands are the first to touch, the first to explore and titillate. Oh, yes, our characters like their hands.
ROMANCE AUTHORS ~ Our
characters sometimes are angry at us, or terribly disappointed in us cause we
won't let them have what they want until the end of the book, but mostly, they
adore us, because we take them on a journey into your, the readers',
minds. Through our words, our characters
can live through your thoughts and become your dreams, and take you on an
adventure without ever going anywhere.
So enjoy all your romance characters and those who aren't so romantic. It is just fun to read about them, isn't it?
We'd love to hear from anyone interested in what we do. Anyone who writes us at writingteamcw@yahoo.com (Write - Blog Dawn - in subject line) and leaves an s-mail address, we will send you a free ebook (choose erotic or romantic thriller) and add you to any future mailings.
