I'm writing a story, and i need help...?

Question

it is a romance/action-adventure type thing. I already have the plot down and how it is going to end. i just need a little help writing the whole romantic aspect of it. I have written a lot of it, i just think that it could be more intense. I have never been in love so i could use some suggestions about the subject of love. How do you feel? What about heart-break? Give me some adjectives describing the sensation of being in love.

Answer 1

You have yourself a problem.  I think love is such a complicated subject that you can never really articulate the feeling until you've experienced it.  s*x is equally difficult to describe if you're still a virgin.  My best suggestion would be read a lot of work that is similar to what you're trying to accomplish and get a sense of how others articulate such complicated subjects.  Inexperience can lead to cliche "as soon as he saw here his heart began to race.  He felt as if he had known her his whole life."  Bleh!  No fun to read, corny, and inaccurate.
