How To Write A Great Romantic Comedy with Jacquie D’Alessandro
- Heroines saying funny, witty stuff are funny.
- Heroines get naked and discovered by heroes under plausible circumstances, ie she strips to take a bath.
- Heroes see heroines naked under plausible circumstances, pre-coitus, ie he is in a remote cabin he believes to be empty until he hears moaning from the bathroom. Alas, moaning is not because said heroine having a solo skin party, but because of old rusty water pipes.
- Top notch sexual tension.
- Funny repartee. Funny raccoons that are actually adorable.
- Top notch sexual tension.
- Smart, funny heroes. No contrived baggage.
- Smart, funny heroines. No contrived sex-free personality or kookiness.
- Did I mention top notch sexual tension?
- Did I mention witty repartee?
