A Little Romance

I’m not so good with romantic things, I don’t think. I’m a happily married woman (most of the time), but when it comes to my stories I don’t think I’m very good at it. Maybe I’m okay at writing family dynamics, and maybe I just need to sit down and make myself write a love story. I like romance and the sad and the sweet.

Entertainment Weekly has a photo essay on the “Top 25 Most Romantic Gestures in Film“, that I thought was pretty good. Just have to learn to say with words what sometimes seems easier with pictures. Love is often silent.

Slightly off topic, my friend Autumn wrote a really good entry on Inner Demons you ought to give a read.

    I think if you WANT to write romance, then you should. Otherwise, no big. The reason I like to write romance is that I don’t think there’s a better way to explore relational dynamics than the love relationship. There’s just nothing quite like it. :)
