Hi, I'm Charley!

Hello SavvyAuthors!

My name is Charley Mack. I am an unpublished dark romance author currently bouncing around three different series. I'm one of those people that can't stay focused on one project so I've been allowing myself to jump between projects and I am getting so much more done! I hope to release the first book in the series later this year or early next year.

Writing can be a lonely and stressful experience so I am looking to connect with other writers. I look forward to being a part of this community!

Hi Charley Mack. Welcome. I'm new here too. Like you, I have several projects going at the same time. I write Fantasy, time travel, and Paranormal Fantasy. Right now I'm trying to finish the latest book in the time travel series. And I agree with you. Connecting with other writers and getting feedback is a great way to stay motivated. I'm not familiar with dark romances. Can you explain? Good luck!

Hi Bluetopaz!

I couldn't put it into the right words so here's Google's definition:
"Dark romance is a subgenre of romantic fiction that explores darker, more intense themes and elements often considered taboo or morally ambiguous in traditional romance."

Think morally gray or villanous characters, more intense emotional battles, and potentially disturbing elements with the romance. It's usually high stakes or forbidden romance. For example, the series I'm working most on features the hero detective trying to track down a serial killer, who happens to be the heroine who also works within the police department.

I hope this helps!
