Do you want to write Romantic Comedy, but struggle with the comedy element of it? Are you stumped by how to inject more humour into your novel?

Then you've come to the right place.

Award winning authors Jane Lovering and Rhoda Baxter have over twenty books between them (where they make a great defensive wall) and extensive experience of cramming laughter into literature. They will show you how to put comedy into your romances, and make you laugh while they do so.

This book will teach you:

The different types of comedy

The anatomy of a joke

How to make things funnier

Different uses for comedy in a novel

A simple trick to translate timing onto the page

Specificity explained through the medium of biscuits

If you're looking for an easy, accessible How-To guide to writing romantic comedy* then this is the book for you.

Autorenporträt
Rhoda writes contemporary women's fiction with a hint of geek.

Back in the early 2000s, when she commuted into London every day, Rhoda read romance novels and wished there were more stories about women who were not obsessed with shoes. Besides which, where were all the nice men - the sort that rely on wit and charm rather than money and biceps?

Rhoda now writes the sort of books she wanted to read. She's lucky enough to have several books published by a traditional publisher (thank you Choc Lit!). Her books have been nominated for prizes and her articles have appeared on various websites, including USA Today.

In real life, she has a DPhil in microbiolgy, so if her pen name sounds vaguely bacterial, you can guess why.

You can find her wittering on about cake and science or making bad puns on her website (www.rhodabaxter.com), or on Facebook or Twitter (@rhodabaxter). Or, if you like, you can email her at rhodab@rhodabaxter.com. Please do say hello if you're passing.
