Romance Writer''s Phrase Book (Perigee Book)

Book Review   by:Diana2     Original Author: J.Kent
ª
 
Are you a new romance writer or advanced writer ? have been looking for a helping tool? then, this book for you it has a lot of wonderful, inventive phrases and a rich vocabulary.

The book is an enormously helpful tool, if you give it the proper chance, and appreciate it for what it is.It will help you to come up with your own phrases.

I didn''t know if I wanted to buy this book at first or not, because I wondered how much help it would be to me , but I''m HAPPY I purchased this gold mine of a book.

The book is a good way to shake out some well-needed adjectives, verbs, and other wording you may be stuck on trying to pull from the air when you''re writing. Again, that''s why I recommend taking a highlighter pen to certain words in this book. If you actually borrowed the phrases in their entirety, you would turn out a lame book with a hint of 70s and 80s dime-store novel cliches.

You will find phrases you can use for hand, eye, finger and body movements also in the back are different ways to describe the color of your characters eyes, hair, or anything else you need a fresh word for, good luck getting that published .
