Hello:

Every since Romantic Times reviewed one of my SF novels, I wanted to branch out some and write a true romantic SF novel. I figure my odds are much better if I teamed with an established romantic novelist.

Anybody out there who might be interesting in a collaboration?

I'm pretty much a newbie (never published) but I have written a lot of fantasy romance/adventures. I just never submitted them until the last few weeks. I'd be glad to help however I could.

I've written two romance novel, one with a partner, and one on my one. I think you may be better off going solo. Besides, It' pretty difficult to find an established romance writer who has any reason to collaborate. Most already have contracts and deadlines, and can write and sell novels without a partner.

But assuming you actually read a lot of romance novels, your skills should be more than enough to do the job. The romance genre is the easiest one there is to crack. If you don't read romance novels, of course, not even an established romance writer is going to be of any help.
