One of the aspects
that make
my romance novels unique
is the novels
can be read
on their own
but they are also
intricately connected
to each other.
They belong to a world.
This requires
a sh*tload of work
and sometimes
I get the urge
to skip it.
Other writers in my niche
don’t connect
their stories.
Why should I?
But I shouldn’t skip it
because this extra ‘work’
is what differentiates
my stories from other stories.
It is WHY some readers
(customers)
prefer my stories
(products)
over the competition’s stories.
“When difficulties arise,
it might very well be
good news.
Because those difficulties
may dissuade
all the people
who aren’t as dedicated
as you are.”
Embrace the difficult parts,
especially if they
differentiate you
from the competition.
