Oh, how the world of fiction publishing has changed! What used to be Mom’s tea party (with agents and traditional book contracts and demure, knees-together seating) has become a wild house-party of bold self-publishing, mystical Amazon algorithms, seat-of-the-pants marketing and promotions. Experienced romance novelist and book coach Meredith Bond walks Pru Warren, her wide-eyed and unpublished co-host, through the real life of an author from the craft of writing and editing, through publishing and marketing, and finally into building a GLOBAL PUBLISHING EMPIRE! Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and get ready to start your weekend with the Writer's Block Party Podcast. Tune in every Friday.

By reading excerpts and having heated discussions, Merry and Pru decide several things: A love scene doesn’t necessarily mean a sex scene; it doesn’t even have to involve both protagonists (if you’re as skillful as Merry). If you write a sex scene, then it must advance the plot. And if you’re writing sex scenes without emotion, then that’s just anatomy. You do you, boo-boo—-but that ain’t a romance.
If you want Pru's beautiful love scenes in Cyn and the Peanut Butter Cup, you can find it here.
If you want to read An Exotic Heir, from which Merry read a romantic scene, you can find that here.
