I received these comments for my last Romance/Love newsletter "Futuristic Romance" .
Turkey DrumStik  wrote: Why so dystopian?
I'm thinking it's because dystopia is the only way many writers (and readers) can process their fears regarding the future. When da Vinci and H.G. Wells made future predictions, the downsides of their predictions weren't easy to see with the knowledge available at the time. As we learn more about the world, we see the flaws, and those flaws do inform our predictions (even in fiction).
I agree. I can totally see how writers process their own fears through their writing. I do find it bewildering though how many women seem to get a real rise out of writing the most oppressive situations for women in their fiction, especially when it's about the future. Men always write themselves into the hero and winner roles.
Quick-Quill  wrote: Romance or LOVE comes in extreme contexts. Consuming love, controlling love, abusive love and many others. Sleeping with the enemy is a movie about that love and what one woman does to get out of the relationship. We know he's going to find her. It wouldn't be a good story if she escaped scott free.
It wouldn't be much of a story if the guy hadn't shown back up in "Sleeping with the Enemy." That is true. I forgot how it ended. Did she kill him? I hope he suffered. 
I received this comment for my previous Romance/Love newsletter "Historical Romance" .
Osirantinous  wrote: OMG! How did you manage to come across that story of mine? But thank you for finding it nonetheless, as it's reminded me I need to add some chapters and, really, to finish it. I've been reading a lot of 'you've got this all wrong' articles these days from people who research a specific time-period and reveal that people weren't as downtrodden as we've always thought. The Greeks and Romans are the same; no dark ages for them and women certainly weren't as quiet as they were thought to be. I'm definitely creating Antinous' history since the 'real word' is so absent. The ending will be what historian's know but Antinous is definitely going to live before he dies! I'm all for real people in a historic setting. "My Name is Antinous"
Yes! Complete the story! And make everyone as powerful as you think they should have been.

Office romance: career climbing executive falls for someone lower on the rungs. Should they act on it or keep climbing the corporate ladder?
