Boy Meets Girl


How to make your romance stand out from the rest?


Romantic story starters.


Right here, in the beginning, I want to make it clear that "Boy Meets Girl" is just a phrase. It is not part of the recipe for romance. You can insert any combination of genders into romantic plots as you want.

*Heart* Office romance: career climbing executive falls for someone lower on the rungs. Should they act on it or keep climbing the corporate ladder?

*Heart* Antiques shop owner keeps setting off the burglar alarm to get the cute cop to come and take a report.

*Heart* Freshly minted professional struggling with tons of student loan debt works as a painter's model and wonders why the artist keeps booking them when there are others who could take the job.

*Heart* Young widow hires help for the farm.

*Heart* Obsessive compulsive individual in search for perfection falls for messy co-worker whose hair is always in disarray and let's not even mention the desk piled high with stuff, lost car keys, and that bread crumb in the corner of their mouth.

*Heart* Two martial artists face off and find out they have an affinity for one another that goes beyond fighting on the mat.

*Heart* Romeo and Juliet. Vampires and werewolves. Prince and pauper. Opposites attract.

*Heart* Creature from mythology falls for human and has to find ways to gain the human's attention and affection.

Ask & Answer

I received these comments for my last Romance/Love newsletter "Futuristic Romance" .

Elisa the Bunny Stik wrote: Why so dystopian?

I'm thinking it's because dystopia is the only way many writers (and readers) can process their fears regarding the future. When da Vinci and H.G. Wells made future predictions, the downsides of their predictions weren't easy to see with the knowledge available at the time. As we learn more about the world, we see the flaws, and those flaws do inform our predictions (even in fiction).

I agree. I can totally see how writers process their own fears through their writing. I do find it bewildering though how many women seem to get a real rise out of writing the most oppressive situations for women in their fiction, especially when it's about the future. Men always write themselves into the hero and winner roles.

Quick-Quill wrote: Romance or LOVE comes in extreme contexts. Consuming love, controlling love, abusive love and many others. Sleeping with the enemy is a movie about that love and what one woman does to get out of the relationship. We know he's going to find her. It wouldn't be a good story if she escaped scott free.

It wouldn't be much of a story if the guy hadn't shown back up in "Sleeping with the Enemy." That is true. I forgot how it ended. Did she kill him? I hope he suffered. *Smirk*

I received this comment for my previous Romance/Love newsletter "Historical Romance" .

Osirantinous wrote: OMG! How did you manage to come across that story of mine? But thank you for finding it nonetheless, as it's reminded me I need to add some chapters and, really, to finish it. I've been reading a lot of 'you've got this all wrong' articles these days from people who research a specific time-period and reveal that people weren't as downtrodden as we've always thought. The Greeks and Romans are the same; no dark ages for them and women certainly weren't as quiet as they were thought to be. I'm definitely creating Antinous' history since the 'real word' is so absent. The ending will be what historian's know but Antinous is definitely going to live before he dies! I'm all for real people in a historic setting. "My Name is Antinous" 

Yes! Complete the story! And make everyone as powerful as you think they should have been.
