Learn How to Write Romance that Sells
For more than a decade, Adrienne deWolfe has been a book writing coach for Romance novels. For three years, she taught the 8-week course, How to Write Novels that Sell (and its popular 8-week spin-off, Novel Writing Blitz) at a college in her hometown. Adrienne was approached to create the curriculum for these two courses because students at that college had grown frustrated with creative writing classes that weren't adequately preparing Romance authors to sell a full-length book manuscript to a New York publisher.
Adrienne's Approach as a Writing Coach
As a writing coach for aspiring Romance authors, Adrienne maintains a positive, eye-on-the-goal focus, drawing heavily upon the teachings of Attitudinal Healing International. Adrienne is certified as both a peer counselor and group facilitator of the Attitudinal Healing program, which was created by California psychiatrist, Gerald Jampolsky, M.D., and is based on A Course in Miracles.
Simple, universal, and powerful, the 12 principles of Attitudinal Healing are inspiring, life-changing tools. They can be applied to daily situations to help Romance writers release negative, worrisome thoughts, thereby deepening the awareness of the immense power of attitude -- how it creates experience and how it impacts personal relationships.
Adrienne has successfully applied the principles of Attitudinal Healing to mentor Romance writers through all manner of personal and professional challenges, including the balance of home life and career demands, creative writing blocks, money shortfalls, editorial rejection, the cancellation of a fiction line, and career stagnation. By applying the principles of Attitudinal Healing to help her Romance writing clients, Adrienne deWolfe mentors Romance writers in a supportive environment so that they can:
-
-
-
-
Develop Romance novel ideas
-
Improve Romance writing skills (including sexual tension)
