Link Fiesta - Conflict

I'm working hard on my WIP's internal conflict. It's absolutely vital to a romance novel and I'm having some difficulty developing it. Here are some helpful links I've found.

Harlequin Presents is a category line that really focuses on the hero-heroine relationship. Here are some tips on how to develop internal conflict.

Gratuitous House Link: Nacho Figueras' house in Buenos Aires. The decor can best be described as glamorous gaucho. There's a Chesterfield sofa and a cowhide Courvoisier lounge chair. I've never read a romance where the couple makes out in a Courvoisier lounge chair. Someone should write one, but it will not be me.

Link Fiesta - Revisions

Here's some helpful stuff I've found around the internet. I'm plodding through revisions so these mostly deal with the nitty-gritty of the revisions process.

Revision advice from Jaye Wells. I love every single one of her writing posts, but this one is sheer genius.

From Veronica Roth: Post 1,  Post 2, Post 3, Post 4, Post 5. Veronica has a LOT of posts on the revision process. She really eviscerates her books when she revises and I love that.

Jennifer Crusie has a wonderful series of blog posts where she chronicles her working process. It's called The Twelve Days of Liz. My favorite posts are here and here.

Gratuitous House Porn Link: Jeremy Renner, house flipper? Hooked on Houses has a blog post on a house he designed. The house has a barber chair and Escher-style marble floors, and the decor is very Harlequin Presents fabulousness. Check it out.
