The Importance of Happily Ever After by Jess Michaels
Current mood: inspired
Before I was published, I got a lot of questions about why I was writing romance. "Don’t you want to write a real book?" they’d say. Or, "Once you break in, you’ll write something meaningful, right?" And I would grit my teeth and try to remain calm. On a bad day, I’d just walk away, but on a good one I might make an effort to explain why romance novels have value, how they aren’t what you think, and how much importance I think there is to "happily ever after".
This is such a FABULOUS article by Jess Michaels. She posted it in the Fiction Readers group on Gather, where she’ll be hanging out and posting more awesome stuff all month.
And what about you, romance writers? Do you ever get asked this? And how do you respond?
