Supercharge Your Romance Tropes

In this workshop: Tropes are the building blocks of fiction in all genres, but especially important in Romance.

By mixing and blending tropes, writers can create stories that feel both fresh and familiar, that give readers what they're looking for in new and exciting ways.
