What's your favorite heat level for your books? Steamy or super-hot? Or maybe you'd rather leave the details behind closed doors. There's nothing wrong with showing everything or keeping it all under wraps. But you can still stir the reader's emotions while leaving some things under the covers.

It's not what you show, it's how you make the reader feel. Find out how to stir your characters' passions (and your reader's) using descriptive words and imagery.

We'll cover:
1. The build-up – why foreplay is important for your reader
2. Intimacy without going all the way – it's the simple gestures that tell the story for the reader
3. How to develop your own list of words and phrases that you can pull from to stimulate ideas and heat up the action
4. Less is more - how to decide when you should go all the way, or pull back
5. Being a tease – why it's best if the big moment doesn't come too quickly

This class was phenomenal! I wasted time writing in genres and heat levels that were not appropriate to my story and I wish I had known about this class sooner.
