My new book of romance writing prompts is available for pre-order!

The coolest thing happened. As you know, I’ve self-published 5 books of writing prompts in the Pop Prompts book series, and as a result of those books, an editor from Simon and Schuster reached out and asked me to write a new book of writing prompts for them. And now it’s here (almost)!

Write a Romantasy: 99 Prompts to Write a Tale of Heart and Heroism from Simon and Schuster / Adams Media comes out on August 26, 2025. But it’s available NOW via Pre-Order from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop, and BAM.

Ideal for writers at all experience levels, this workbook offers an abundance of tips and a variety of prompts that will inspire writers to create their perfect romantasy story! This book will engage your creativity, beat your writer’s block, and spark new ideas. If you aren’t a writer, it makes a GREAT GIFT for the writers in your life.

For just $17 (or $12 for the kindle edition!), unlimited inspiration is yours. Write a Romantasy will get you writing!

I’ve worked with so many writers over the years who have told me they don’t know how, when, and where to start when they want to write their first book (or even their second, third, fourth). Have you ever asked yourself the following questions:

What are some good ideas to start out with for writing a short story? My book has hundreds of starting points for you.
How do I come up with short story ideas? Again, so many writers are baffled by the idea of where to begin, which is why my book is such a great tool. Every prompt is a beginning, and you can do the prompts over and over again—each time focusing on a different aspect of the prompt.
How do I start writing a romance novel? You already know my answer…start with my book!
