And yes, Karen, the heroine should rescue ...Thanks! And yes, Karen, the heroine should rescue herself. Even in romance novels, today the heroine has to be the star of her own story, and that means not waiting around for rescue. It's all right if she and the hero take turns rescuing each other, or work together, but your main character should always play a major part in the climax.Kris Bockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16217265282250089583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6296041276140635168.post-38616573786906109902012-11-14T16:14:35.996-07:002012-11-14T16:14:35.996-07:00Another excellent post! :)Another excellent post! :)Tracy Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11829493307148654507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6296041276140635168.post-83461968757708517982012-11-10T04:08:40.910-07:002012-11-10T04:08:40.910-07:00I love a good ending. And I feel cheated if it'...I love a good ending. And I feel cheated if it's too convenient. Or if a heroine is "rescued" by a hero. Those sort of bug me for some reason. I prefer if a heroine/hero saves the day by digging in and pushing their limits. Completely agree with the 'short sentences and short paragraphs.' This is not the time to go into a long description of how the mountains look or how the bubbling brook sounds. Karen S. Elliotthttp://www.karenselliott.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
