My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.
Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this co

Hot take: being sick of each other is completely normal and can actually strengthen a relationship. It provides another hurdle to move past. I did not immediately love everything about how my husband lived his life and there were times where little stuff he did made me upset or annoyed. And vice versa, spend TOO long with someone and you eventually find SOMETHING you don’t agree or like about one another. BUT you can absolutely use this as a plot device and strengthen their bond by having them fight and then compromise, just like what happens in real life. Real love takes WORK and gets easier with time. Been with him 9 years now and I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, and he is my muse ❤

One thing that kills romance for me is when they fall madly in love and have nothing in common. Theres absolutely no reason why they should fall in love yet they are suddenly in love. There has to be a connection between the two people in order for their romance to withstand the stories conflict. Another thing that kills me is when one character does something truly messed up to the other character and it’s forgiven in the end because they are SO in love. That’s an instant killer for me

The worst mistake for me in writing romantic chemistry is sacrificing authenticity for the sake of plot convenience or adhering to romantic tropes without adding depth or originality to the relationship

"When they tease ease other about other love interests" - that can set up a fun twist. Character A is convinced that B couldn't possibly love them so A tries to set them up with C because C is "far more worthy" of B. B mistakes the attempted matchmaking as A being disinterested and tries to settle for C despite loving A.

What kills the romantic ship for me is usually when one person does most of the work in the relationship when the other simply doesn't invest as much thoughts or just stupid and never grows. I think it just won't work when two people develops at different pace, most of the time I started rooting for the one with most growth to move on and find better pair/be alone.

In Chinese Historical Fantasy novels, there is a deliberate thing, called Second Male Lead Syndrome. It's on purpose. It's when the secondary male is so good with the Female Lead, that you wish they would ditch the actual Male Lead for the secondary. If you ever want to rant about a girl being with the wrong guy, read the Chinese novel Chaos of Beauty. I swear it was those interactions with the Secondary ML that kept me turning the pages. I hated, and still hate the Male Lead. However, I will say if you write a better love interest you only have two ways to go, messy divorce to be with the other person, or terrible tragedy.
So, while I agree with most of the advice, sometimes that secondary character being better has plot potential. At the very least if you break your reader's hearts and crush their 'ship' they will remember your novel for years to come.

Abbie your candles near your books are STRESSIN' ME OUT haha

Fullmetal Alchemist has possibly the most impressive romances I have seen. Because I am a shipper, I am a navy captain over my fleet of ships. But FMA makes me root for every single one of the canon ships, and I don't root for any other ship. I usually think the love interest is more interesting with one of the side characters, but FMA just manages it, I don't know how.

My thing is when a character DELIBERATELY destroys something/someone the other character loves just to see them suffer. Maybe it's bc I hold grudges, but it's just sickening to me. Not only is it insanely hard to redeem that character later on, but it's hard to see the two together without viewing the scene under a veil of toxicity. If it's on accident? Yes. Give me all the angst.

Mako and Raleigh from Pacific Rim is a very good example of building chemistry right, and they didn't even end up together

6 hits hard. I read a book that the two characters were flawed, but in no way able to help each other get better. Their personalities just clashed. I DNF'd it because being together literally made their flaws worse. This was a romance, so it wasn't a purposeful thing.

This makes me feel so much better about my WIP, I'm not doing any of these for my main couple. Phew!
23 |
I can’t tell you how many times I either hated or DNFed a book because of insta love or they got too close to quickly ❤

Interesting - I could actually see "rarely or never alone together" as a great builder of romantic tension, if it has a clear, compelling reason, and is used as an obstacle they must overcome. I can't help but think of Nora in Pete's Dragon, who managed to have a deeply compelling romance even as the only part of the couple that had any screen time at all lol. Or Maid Marian and Robin Hood in that old Disney adaptation. "Absence makes the heart grow fonder," in the words of Lady Kluck :P

Excellent film choices for examples. Take a look at "Six Days, Seven Nights," ...and add another winner of an example .

Abbey sort of looks like Elizabeth Bennet, is that just me? Great video as always!!! 💚✨

OH NO. This video made me REALLY stressed about my two main characters! They don't constantly have alone time, but when they do, they touch each other and get productive in their relationship's chemistry.
However, I'm realizing that they liked each other as soon as they met (not love at first sight though) because FMC saved MMC. The latter lacking self-confidence and trusted friends, he immediately gets attached to FMC in a sort of pathetic way (because he quickly becomes enamored with those who show support to him), but then, he slowly learns more about her and gets genuinely attached to her in a loving way.
Is this interesting if two characters like each other from the start? Like, the opposite of enemies-to-lovers?

The worst romantic tension killer for me is when the MC goes on and on about how hot the Love Interest is. Like sure, he's hot, but what other good qualities does he have?
