Hear Me Out… Monster Romance Workshop
What happens when love meets the monstrous?
Monster romance invites us to explore power, vulnerability, otherness, obsession, protection, and desire beyond the limits of the human form. It can be tender. It can be weird. It can be morally grey. It can be deeply comforting.
In this immersive pop-up workshop, we’ll explore:
- Why monster romance works psychologically
- The tropes readers crave
- Guided instruction to craft a villain POV scene with strong motivation and clean pacing, without info-dumps
- Building believable non-human lovers
- Consent spectrum and tone clarity
- Plotting beast-centered romance arcs
- Market trends and visual branding
Whether your monster is a cinnamon-roll forest guardian or a possessive shadow entity, you’ll leave with tools, direction, and a story idea you’re excited to write.
Because sometimes the most devoted love stories have claws.
