Category Romance Outline Writing Course

Writing a book is hard. And writing a book that readers love is even harder!

Have you ever finished writing a book and had that nagging feeling that something was missing? Or maybe you’ve just started a new writing project, only to find your enthusiasm fizzling out mid-way through? Or you’ve made it to the end of your latest manuscript, only to discover there was a much better way of writing it? Perhaps your current method of plotting isn't generating the kind of creativity you want, or the stories readers crave?

There is a simple solution to these problems and more: use an outline!

Specifically, the outline designed by mega-selling Relay Publishing. For over six years Relay has used this system to create page-turning romance books that readers can’t get enough of! They sell a book every thirty-eight seconds, and every one of their best-selling titles uses this exact outline template.

This comprehensive five-stage outline process delivers a step-by-step method to make your characters and story STRONGER!

The outlining method taught in this course is more than just the basic skeleton of a book. This is a complete system that will not only provide a strong foundation for your writing, but push you to find your best story—completely unique to you and your characters.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• How to use the tropes readers love without being formulaic and slipping into cliché

• How to develop rich characters with goals, motivations, values and conflict baked in before any plot is laid down

• How asking carefully crafted questions will bring out the best in your characters and story

• How a simple game can give you all the scenes your book needs

• How to create a plot that grows organically from the unique characters you have set up and the choices they make

• The 18 beats your story must have to keep the reader turning the pages

• How to turn those beats into fully-fledged scenes you’ll love to write

No second guessing, no endless drafts or rewrites, no writer’s block — this outlining system will free your mind to focus on what you do best: writing great romance stories.

NOTE: In the final stage of this course, your outline will be reviewed by a professional editor for feedback. This is included in the cost of the course.
