The international market for romance is huge, hungry and incorporates aspects of fantasy, paranormal, crime, suspense and other genres. This is why romance writers published with large, international publishers can earn a living. Yet in Australia the assumption persists that it’s a simple genre for simple readers and something that ‘real writers” don’t write. Discover the opportunities for Australian writers in the international market, and learn the crucial features of gripping, well-written, internationally marketable romantic fiction. Suitable for all levels. Come prepared to write.

Anne Gracie started writing romance as an ignoramus, thinking it would be an easy way to fund more literary ambitions; what she discovered was a whole new challenge. She’s now an internationally multi-published, award-winning Australian writer, published by Berkley Books (a division of Penguin USA.). www.annegracie.com
