Celeste is a fan of good stories, positive attention & effort. She’s generally a happy person & quite accomplished, so she smiles a lot.
Alex smiles at affirmation. He’s very attractive & equally smart. But he has insecurities that present as pretentiousness. #WIP #writesky
Family holiday things tonight so may be slow to respond! But I hope everyone who celebrates is having a good holiday!
What is something that makes your character genuinely smile?
Is it easy to do?

Only my husband and two of my writer circle friends have read my first steamy romance novella. He thinks it’s cringe, but he thinks all romance is cringe. My writer friends like it — they enjoy romance stories, so people like them are more my target.
Who among your friends and family has read your smut? Has it been a positive experience sharing it with them?

Celeste & Alex have PhDs in poli sci & are professors at the same university, but her focus is survey research, while his area is political philosophy. This difference is the source of their rivalry, bc Alex hates math & Celeste thinks Alex is pretentious.

Does your character have an education?
Is there formal education where they are? Or were they trained in specific skills in other ways?
What was their education like? Did they enjoy it?

In my romance WIP, it’s easier for Celeste to accept comments on her intellect or character & her intellect than her appearance. When Alex says she looks “perfect,” she brushes it off as congeniality. It doesn’t help that he’s her workplace rival.

How does your character respond to praise or compliments?
Do they enjoy it and seek it out? Find it a bit awkward or uncomfortable? Flee from it whenever possible?
Does it depend on who is doing the praising?
