This week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop, we're asked to, "How do you keep your romance plots fresh and exciting, especially when writing a series?"
You know, I think this is actually less of a problem in a series than if you're writing stand-alone books. If you're writing a series in which each book focuses on a different set of characters, it's not as likely that they're all going to be dealing with the same issues in the same way. And since you've created them all as unique people and since the plot line usually grows from the character, rather than the other way around, it's not generally a big problem.
I think it's more tempting when you're writing stand alone stories to recycle troupes or plotpoints because you don't have the same kinds of constraints. But perhaps that's just me.
Now, hop on over to Jill Haymaker's page to find out how she deals with keeping plots fresh. And don't forget to check out her up-coming book, Montana Pines Search for Love
