"We don't have a formula because frankly, we don't like them," says Martina Ross, MoonlitBooks.com Editor. "We don't want you to read a straight male/female romance and copy its style, turning Troy McCoy and Lisa Sweet into Troy McCoy and Hank E. Pank. We want to read about characters that are memorable, three-dimensional beings. People to fall in love with. You must be in love with your main characters, quite literally. If you're not, how could your reader ever be?"
"Please don't just write what you know! Let your imagination run wild. Some excellent authors of gay romances are women, and vice versa! Romance is a matter of the heart, not of gender. And that's where the rules end, because we want you to send us stories as varied as they can possibly be. You'll find us open to all good writing. If you're unsure, just send us a preliminary e-mail. Or, just go ahead and send the first three chapters. We like to be surprised!"
