the #SYTYCW15 Boot Camp is back!
We’ve got more character building, plot-thickening and series enlightening posts to help get you and your manuscript ready!
Fear not romance writers, the boot camp (despite its name), is not a rigorous physical test, with a scary beef-cake instructor breathing down your neck! The SYTYCW Boot Camp is a chance for you to whip your manuscript into shape in readiness for our annual writing competition-
So You Think You Can Write – which launches in September!
But what will there be you ask?
But we know the question on everyone’s lips is…
Well dear authors, we have a secret to tell you…
All you need to do is log on to SoYouThinkYouCanWrite.com on Thursday 18th June from 5 a.m to 4 p.m EST, check out our line-up of fabulous content, and what time they’re taking place and enjoy!
So now really is the time to start writing them and thinking about your next amazing story! You never know, yours could be the one randomly picked and reviewed by one of our wonderful editors!
We guarantee your manuscript will be given a thorough work-out but your story, characters and writing will be all the better for it!
Spread the word, get your boot camp game face on and get ready to work those manuscripts!
Happy writing!

I spent the entire shutdown working. Had no time to wind down. I didn’t see my son much when school shutdown. My one co worker was told to stay home for 3 weeks so I picked up her hours. This year has been really crappy.
Ugh, Janell. Here’s hoping the rest of your summer is better.
Thanks for the info, Carol! Everyone is different in how they deal with the shutdown! I stay at home all the time since I don’t work so I haven’t been too effected but my shopping and errands sure have been effected!
Valri, I’ve been doing most of my shopping online. My local Target is still low on some items – mostly cleaning supplies. Grocery store is pretty much back to normal. Most of the dining in our town is outdoor. I can’t imagine have school-age kids!
Wow–getting your creative process on track must have been daunting–especially with “extra-large dog” glad to have you home. You don’t like coffee–I love coffee and have enjoyed my fortifying 2 cups in the morning even more than usual! How as COVID affected your story lines and characterizations? Best Wishes for all releases!
Interesting question, Virginia. You’ll have to tell me if the tone of my “COVID” books changed any! LOL
Life has changed so much! My dad passed Feb 2. The assisted living facility my folks were at went into hardcore lockdown the beginning of March. Mom couldn’t leave her apartment for 4 months! She was on the third floor, Will be 89 in two months & doesn’t use the phone. My husband and I remodeled the lower level completely and moved her in with us July 1. What a life change and difficult transition for the 3 of us! But we’re working thru it!
