I just love Lisa! Great great job and wonderful use of the aid. I will definitely remember this talk!
Thank you so much, Lisa! I’ve already got some ideas on ways to make the romance better in my current WIP.
Really nice presentation. You are so natural in front of that webcam. It was as entertaining and fun as informational. Enjoy your cupcake, because you deserve it! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. meg

First pies. Now cupcakes. One can get fat at this conference. But I really liked it. Good lessons for a male geek trying to get romance right in his writing.
Yay, I finally got to enjoy this video! (I tried yesterday morning at 6:00- the alarm went off but I couldn’t open one eye, literally.) Thank you, Lisa, for the tips and book recommendations. Everything makes lots of sense and the cupcake theme was fun. I had no cupcake here, but managed to watch while eating strawberry frosted Pop Tarts with sprinkles.
Loved this. Thanks for these great tips on keeping it real. Now, dig in to that cupcake, you deserve it!
What great advice and pointers! And what a great way to lay it all out and make it easy to understand.
Thanks Lisa!
And now I want to read 20 Boy Summer even more!
I really love this video! Thank you, Lisa. I’ve made notes and actually came up with some issues in my WIP that I’ll fix in my revisions thanks to your CUPCAKE presentation. Yay!
