The love that those characters experience is usually easy and they barely fight and in real life it's never easy and there are always doubts. __________________ Lynn - golden roses - snagging @ lj♥ "I mean, look at this guy.

| I love writing romance fanfic! ![]() Most of the romance authors I've looked at, though, write a lot of real erotica and graphic sex. I write sex in my stories, but no where close to what some of these romance writers write about! My cousin is actually an erotic romance writer. She has a few books published and her own website. She writes historical romance and she writes beautifully with a great depth and richness, which I think can be hard with romance writing. I want to be a fiction novelist and television screenwriter and I want to write a novel series of psychological romance thrillers cuz I'm a huge fan of psychological romance! ![]() __________________ VOTE FOR DOLLHOUSE ~ SHOW ELIZA SOME LOVE Buffy/Angel, Tru/Jack, Phil/Keely & Lucas/Gail 4 ever![/color] | |||

| Elite Fan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I liked Twilight because I thought Stephenie Meyer had a different writing style to most out there, but by the third book and definately the fourth, my interest's waned a lot The first one is my favourite, but I can't say I recommend the other three that much.The Time Traveler's Wife, however... It's so amazing I can't even begin to describe it I find it difficult to find good books/authors though...most of the books I find seem to be based around the same ideas and I like reading something new. Or maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places ![]() __________________ We're not gonna sit in We're not gonna live with fear Bradley ~ Colin "Take me to Glasgow."icon | |||

I'll still go and watch the movie, but I didn't even read the forth book. I'm really going to have to the The Time Traveler's Wife. I heard about it in another thread and everyone loved it so much ![]() __________________ Lynn - golden roses - snagging @ lj♥ "I mean, look at this guy.

And I wanted to read the Blood series, too, because I watched and loved the show. I was so pissed when they cancelled the show ![]() __________________ Lynn - golden roses - snagging @ lj♥ "I mean, look at this guy. We're going to have to worry about her biting him."

| I really enjoy Jeanette Winterson's style of writing. It's beautifully detailed without being too heavy and instead of going for the same tired images she always comes up with something fresh. So far I've read Lighthousekeeping and Written on the Body by her. I also really like the detached quality of Bret Easton Ellis' writing in American Psycho. There were a few sections that talked exclusively of minutiae about things like bands the narrator liked, etc. There was so much attention to pointless details like the business cards, the new sound systems, hygiene products (for men), etc. that really told us what sort of shallow man the narrator was like. Lunar Park had more heart and was equally as good. | |||

| I haven't read either of those authors, but it's great to get some recommendations ![]() I saw about 5 minutes of American Psycho when it was on TV, and that was enough for me I have a major phobia of Christian Bale now ![]() __________________ I black my eyes and I black my hair, so girls and boys will both stop and stare Adam Lambert ಌ Jen's LJ ಌ | |||
