Romance Publishing Online

Posted by Lizz Shepherd Sep 17, 2009

I'm not a romance reader, but I do have a healthy respect for the force that is romance fiction. About half of the paperback market is comprised of romance novels.

The romance genre represents a tremendous opportunity for unpublished fiction writers. Thousands of new titles are published every month, and unlike most publishers, many romance publishers don't require an agent. In fact, the genre is one of the few that unpublished writers can get into without an agent, and many writers start off in romance before moving into other genres.

So, this month I'm profiling some of the online publishers that specialize in romance novels. There is Ellora's Cave, one of the most prestigious and well-known of the online romance publishers. There is also the relatively new Sugar and Spice, publishing niche novels like interracial romance novels.

If you're interested in writing romance ebooks, take a look at this month's articles in Online Publishing to learn more about the publishers. More new writers are published in the romance genre than in any other, so get to know these publishers if you're serious about getting a romance ebook published.
