Title: Crafting a romance story
Review: The best part about Author Lanigan's book on writing the Great American Romance is her section on outlining. She advises you to dedicate one page per chapter when you outline. To this chapter page staple information on setting, decoration, or history pertinent to that specific chapter. She also stresses the importance of character sketches before you write of up to 20 pages for each major character. I also liked her advice on creating genealogy trees for the heroine and hero so you could include heartfelt information on their family - aunts, cousins and so forth. There's similar information you get from other books on the writing craft but all in all this is a very strong, absorbing book on writing romance.
