The interesting nature of romance novels leave you craving for more. They may inspire your imagination to the extent you feel you can easily come up with your own new contemporary romance novels only to be limited by your limited know how of how to go about it. Improving your skills is a journey and the following guidelines will keep you on the right path.
The romance genre is one with many readers and also high expectations. Every writer can publish a readable book but one below expectations will not be loved. You need to beat all expectations on the books you write so that you can create a pool of fans who will just read any new book you publish because it bears your name as the author.
The characters of the novel play a major role in determining what reception the novel will get from the public. Gradually developing the setting of the novel by introducing the characters in the early chapters and making them a force to reckon with will be great for your novel. Avoiding predictability of the next course of action for the characters should be avoided at all costs.
Plot of your story brings the second tip. Don't take too long in making the plot. By the end of your second chapter anyone reading your book should be able to say what the story is based on or what is to be expected. Your characters are enhanced by your plot so make it great.
Starting where the story starts is the way to go. The first page in the first chapter should start with a emotion filled scene that sets the rest of the story. The scene should be very interesting and full of intensity to make your readers squirm. Some readers will not even read the second page of a boring first page romance novel.
The emotions that a reader can identify with should be developed in the first few chapters of the novel. The heroine or hero should be part of these emotions for a better effect. The initial impression given to the reader about a certain character will not change at advanced stages of reading. Giving a lasting impression is essential to a good novel. The emotions, in our case, are love and thus the love should be developed from an early stage.
The target audience and the age of your characters ought to be in the same bracket. If you are targeting the young adults, then your main characters should be young adults themselves. This ensures there is no mismatch between the audience and the message in the novel. It also ensures the audience can relate with what is happening to different characters properly. The dialogue and events in the story should be those that can be easily related to real life situations.
Every good romance novel has a great end to it. You can choose to end the story as per the expectation of your readers that is, the main characters getting together happily or make an unfortunate turn of events such as the one in the famous Romeo and Juliet book. The end to your new contemporary novels is what will be remembered and most likely your book will be rated on. Make it outrageous.
