Description

Yeah, a man can write a romance. If he does his homework on subjects like "what's all this about alpha males," "do men really hate a woman's 'orgasm face,'" and "what the hell is a Mesh Flyaway Babydoll and G-string set?" DC Thome tackled all these questions and more--and lived to tell about them in his blog, Man Writing a Romance.

Man Writing ANOTHER Romance is the sequel to the scintillating and humorific Man Writing a Romance. So if you're a guy who wants to write a romance novel, or a woman who wants to write a romance novel that seems like it was written by a guy trying to make it seem like it was written by a woman, or just someone who likes to laugh at human foibles (and doesn't "foibles" sound dirty?), you should read Man Writing ANOTHER Romance.

Yeah, a man can write a romance. If he does his homework on subjects like "what's all this about alpha males," "do men really hate a woman's 'orgasm face,'" and "what the hell is a Mesh Flyaway...


Advance Praise

"This is a fun read for any author writing a romance, but probably also for any writer truly investing in researching to do a good job. Dave shares his lessons learned in an easily consumed, tightly written format.

Honestly, you can read most of this content on Dave's very funny "Man Writing A Romance" blog and I did read it there as one of his avid followers. But it's very satisfying to have these all (and some bonus material) in a book on my Kindle that I can open now and again for a laugh when I'm bored, stuck, or otherwise not able to write.

I gave his "blog book" five stars because the content has the power to make me spit coffee on my keyboard when I read some of the posts. He writes about his male research into trying to understand all things female, such as clothing sizes, names for lingerie, and how to describe removing said clothing in romance novels love scenes" - Best-selling author Donna McDonald

"I've been told that blogs and magazine columns don't translate well into books. This effort proves that theory wrong. Mr. Thome has written a fun, and at times, ironic treatise on the making of a romance novel, in this case, from a man's point of view.

Maybe irony isn't the right word to describe *all* of the book, because it's not in the slightest bit contemptuous or disrespectful in any way of the genre. If anything, Mr. Thome pokes fun at himself. He takes us on this strange writer's journey, traveling headlong into the unknown, where he often finds himself (as would any man) misinformed and misguided on everything from a woman's idea of self-image to the terminology of simple articles of women's clothing.

Herein lies the broader appeal of the book. It's not just about writing a romance. It's about men and women and how they relate to one another." - Amazon review from “Bob”
