To become a good writer,do more reading, especially in the market you're targeting. You've heard that before, right? But what do you look for when you are reading? Harlequin Author Susan Meier has a great workshop on her website (it's free!) that explains how to analyze the books you're reading. http://www.susanmeier.com/
This has been particularly helpful as I try to target the category romance market. How are all the lines different from each other? Sometimes reading a book in a totally different line can help you better define what your book shouldn't be.
Now if you'll excuse me, if got a stack of Harlequins calling my name. And I've got a pen and notepad to dissect them.
