Romantasy Made Easy: Write a Love & Magic Bestseller in 6 Minutes

Описание: Romantasy Made Easy: Write a Love & Magic Bestseller in 6 Minutes

Want to write a romantic-fantasy (aka romantasy) novel readers binge? In this 6-minute crash course, I’ll give you a fast framework to pick winning tropes, build a tight magic system, map the romance + fantasy beats, and draft your first chapters with confident pacing—no fluff, just what works.

What you’ll learn

Romantasy vs. Fantasy Romance: which one you’re writing and how that changes your ending (HEA/HFN vs. series hook).

Trope Pack: choose 1 subgenre (fae courts, witch academy, dragon riders, portal fantasy, court intrigue) + 2–3 tropes (enemies-to-lovers, fated mates, bodyguard/princess, forbidden love, grumpy/sunshine).

Premise One-Liner (plug-and-play):
[Protagonist] must [goal] in a world where [magic twist], but [love interest] stands in the way/holds the key, forcing [costly choice] → [HEA or series hook].

Character Chemistry (GMC): each lead’s Goal / Motivation / Conflict + wound and secret that clash (and spark).

Magic With Costs: what power does, what it costs, who controls it (court/guild/church), and how it pressures the relationship.

Beat Map (romance + fantasy hybrid): meet-cute → binding bargain/forced proximity → trials/training (trope delivery) → midpoint reveal/first kiss → betrayal/wedge → dark night → public choice/sacrifice → HEA/HFN or cliffhanger-lite.

Chapter Plan for Bingeability: 30–40 short chapters (1.8–2.5k words), dual POV optional, cliffhanger-lite chapter endings (question/reveal/decision).

Packaging Clues: trope-forward title lines, on-genre cover cues (ornate serif + symbols/sigils), clear heat level and ending type in blurb.

Day 3: One page of magic rules & costs.

Day 4: Outline 12–16 beats using the hybrid map.

Day 5: Draft Chapters 1–2 (meet + binding bargain).

Day 6: Draft Chapters 3–4 (trial/training + first spark).

Day 7: Light edit pages 1–30; draft a blurb that states heat & ending type.


Notes on ethics & safety

Make consent explicit—especially with power gaps (immortal/royal/mentor).

Give the lower-power MC real agency/leverage.

Keep magic consistent; every spell has a price.
