I've realized lately that I don't like romance. I can write love and interest between a couple, but I can't put a lot of passion into it. I'm not talking the icky Harlequin version of passion (ya'll know what I'm talking about) but rather the passion of butterflies in the stomach and giddy emotions that come with the passion of new romance. It's one of those areas that you really do have to know in order to write about I've decided. At least for me. It's just been too long since I've felt those girly emotions and even then it was a feeling with no basis in reality and healthy relationships.
The problem is, how do I finish a story about the love between estranged spouses if I'm having trouble put that particular emotion on paper? That's something I guess I'm going to have to work on.
