As adults, SeoJin and JiWoo become independent and left their hometown, but even in the city, they live in each other's neighbourhood. Although they have known each other for a long time, they have never looked at each other as a man and a woman. They just maintain a strong friendship, being there for each other when they need each other. On a winter night with Christmas just around the corner, their relationship begins to change when JiWoo unexpectedly asks SeoJin out on a Christmas date. We always make choices. And what we lose and what we gain in return. Here is a woman torn between choices. Torn between a best friend and the love of her life. #contemporary #modernSetting #mistake #friendsToLover #firstLove #calmAndQuiet #healingHeart * This short story of Romance is translated from from the original Korean short web-novel. (text only, no illustration) Tables Of Contents Title Page Body Content Copyright (81 pages in approx. print length) Preview Friday nights at the end of the year were noisy everywhere they went. SeoJin was there. What began this summer with a relatively long-running cast in a modest role ended at the end of this year. The results were good. It was quite topical on social media and received a lot of favorable reviews. When a movie was dubbed, many people grumbled about the voice actors but watched it anyway. Considering that, it was a result that exceeded expectation. It was only natural that SeoJin would drink at a year-end party. SeoJin was a second-year freelance voice actress. If she adds up with the career at companies, it would soon be the fifth year. SeoJin was steadily building her own career. When she was full-time, the roles she played were well received, so fortunately, she became a freelancer and her career was not interrupted. Even so, like everyone at first, the first year was difficult because of the low income from the occasional job. She couldn't open her hands to her parents, so she made up for her scarce living expenses with the money she had saved steadily, and when she was struggling, she even worked short-term part-time jobs. Compared to that kind of life, she was grateful for this moment when she completed the long-term program safely and well. "Well done, SeoJin. It was a bit of a big part this time, wasn't it?" "Yes, you as a senior voice actress have taught me well, so I was able to learn a lot." "Don't take me to the sky. I'm not fooled by that." "SeoJin, Don't believe that, even if you say something like that, his expression is too good." As time went on, the party was getting rowdier. SeoJin was almost the youngest in her career, so she was trying not to get drunk, but the people sitting next to her drank the sprits a lot they asked her to do so, and she was slowly losing her mind. As the time drew on, the sound of people leaving the room little by little came out, and SeoJin sneaked out into the bathroom. She put her hands on her hot face and looked in the mirror. Instead of turning red when she drank, she turned white, so it was easy for everyone to misunderstand that she was a good drinker. She wasn't a bad drinker, but that didn't mean she was okay with drinking a lot. She was barely able to keep her mind off because she was secretly taking care of herself by drinking water from the side, but otherwise she would have gotten drunk properly. SeoJin washed her hands in the cold water. She thought of washing her hands in ice-cold water to keep her senses. Ringing. When the phone rang shallowly, she took out the phone and checked the screen, and there was a familiar name. For a moment, she remembered the text she got to leave him a message earlier. She didn't even call him, but if she didn't answer this call, she would probably hear the storm of nagging, so she quickly pressed the call button before it hung up. "... Hello-ish." [What. Are you drunk?] "A little. Hehe..." It was a bit of a reproachful tone, but he didn't seem to be angry, so SeoJin relaxed a little. Perhaps it was because she was relaxed, but a light laugh came out of her mouth because of the surge of alcohol. A small sigh came over the phone. [You're going home soon, what's the name of the bar.] "Here? ... Here... 'Desk Drawer'!" [Luckily it's nearby, I'll' call you and answer it, I'll wait for you in front of the bar.] "Yes. Mother."

Book Description
What makes a romance novel a romance? How do you write a kissing book?Writing a well-structured romance isn't the same as writing any other genre-something the popular novel and screenwriting guides don't address. The romance arc is made up of its own story beats, and the external plot and theme need to be braided to the romance arc-not the other way around.Told in conversational (and often irreverent) prose, Romancing the Beat can be read like you are sitting down to coffee with romance editor and author Gwen Hayes while she explains story structure. The way she does with her clients. Some of whom are regular inhabitants of the New York Times and USA Today bestseller lists.Romancing the Beat is a recipe, not a rigid system. The beats don't care if you plot or outline before you write, or if you pants your way through the drafts and do a "beat check" when you're revising. Pantsers and plotters are both welcome. So sit down, grab a cuppa, and let's talk about kissing books.

Pages : 64
Book Description
It's Autumn and more than crisp, colorful leaves are falling...three couples are falling in the love of their lifetimes.Welcome to the first short story collection by Debut Author Dawn Van Beck, which includes the following three short and sweet romances: Autumn Splendor: Blair Sutton somewhat expected to run into her childhood best friend, Colton Kingsbury, as they reunited for her Paw Paw's funeral in Eagle River, Wisconsin. What she didn't expect, however, was for Colton's presence to reignite the smoldering feelings she'd vowed to dismiss. As their limited time together presents an opportunity to take inventory of their current lives, will Blair continue to suppress her feelings, or will she finally admit to what Colton anticipated all along?As the Leaves Turn: The leaves aren't the only things falling in Michigan's charming Upper Peninsula! Grace Montgomery spends a vacation weekend in the quaint lakeside town of St. Ignace. Reluctantly allowing the handsome Brandon Walker to be her personal tour guide, their companionship leads her to questioning everything about her life back in Chicago, including her complex relationship with her boyfriend, Dexter. Will Grace choose to remain in Chicago, or will she one day return to St. Ignace...and to Brandon?Victorian Fall: Kendall's world crushes beneath him as his beloved Jasmine suffers amnesia following a horrible accident. Kendall makes repeated attempts to trigger Jasmine's memory of the strong bond of love between them. As time passes and his hope diminishes, will sparks of the life they once shared appear along with the Victorian Fall Festival they came to love as the couple they once were?PRAISE FOR AUTUMN LOVE: "Wow! I'm in love...with the short and sweet romances of Debut Author Dawn Van Beck. She's a master storyteller, who makes you feel every bit of the magic in the tales she weaves. Such perfect, little short stories that just make you feel good and offer a wonderful reminder that love triumphs overall. I'm looking forward to her next collection."--- D. D. Scott, International Bestselling AuthorABOUT THE AUTHOR: Hi there! Welcome to "me". I'm a writer, singer, child of God, and chocolate chip cookie connoisseur. I hold a degree in Human Resources with a concentration in Gerontology which has allowed me a rewarding career advocating for vulnerable senior adults. After transitioning out of my private Guardianship practice of several years, I now work alongside my husband with our moving business as well as put in some part-time hours at an Elder Law office . . . still advocating for seniors.My love of all things writing began at an early age, pretending to be a librarian leading "story time" with my imaginary patrons. Over the years I've contributed to various publications including newsletters, magazines and theater pieces. My first official publication was in 1993 for the magazine "West Coast Woman", where I shared my experience of living with a Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis. Now, after years of dreaming, I'm finally publishing the dozens of short stories I've written as well as a children's picture book and working on wrapping up a Christian Romance novel.I make my home in sunny Florida where I'm surrounded by a ridiculous number of writing journals and artisan coffee mugs. Close to my heart are bear hugs from my crazy husband, time spent with my adult children, and the companionship of Lilly, our feisty Daschund.Join me as we journey together sharing short stories, devotions, miscellaneous musings and an occasional rant or two (or three).Come, sit for a spell . . . I'll put the coffee on.And in the meantime, please connect with me at my website (Dawn Van Beck dotcom) and on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest (Dawn Van

After transitioning out of my private Guardianship practice of several years, I now work alongside my husband with our moving business as well as put in some part-time hours at an Elder Law office . . . still advocating for seniors.My love of all things writing began at an early age, pretending to be a librarian leading "story time" with my imaginary patrons. Over the years I've contributed to various publications including newsletters, magazines and theater pieces. My first official publication was in 1993 for the magazine "West Coast Woman", where I shared my experience of living with a Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis. Now, after years of dreaming, I'm finally publishing the dozens of short stories I've written as well as a children's picture book and working on wrapping up a Christian Romance novel.I make my home in sunny Florida where I'm surrounded by a ridiculous number of writing journals and artisan coffee mugs. Close to my heart are bear hugs from my crazy husband, time spent with my adult children, and the companionship of Lilly, our feisty Daschund.Join me as we journey together sharing short stories, devotions, miscellaneous musings and an occasional rant or two (or three).Come, sit for a spell . . . I'll put the coffee on.And in the meantime, please connect with me at my website (Dawn Van Beck dotcom) and on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest (Dawn Van

Book Description
Someplace Between Heaven and Hell… Four years ago, Guy Frabosa had hurt Marnie so deeply that she vowed never to set eyes on him again and had divorced him in a blaze of pain and anger. He fought her, but she'd had a trump card and had been desperate enough to use it. Now Guy held all the cards—Marnie needed his financial help and had little choice but to play be her ex-husband's rules. He demanded her body and soul, but the thought of returning to his side as his wife filled her with a raging hatred—made all the more consuming by her utterly wanton desire for his lovemaking.

Book Description
The Story Behind THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE If you've read his books THE WAR OF ART and TURNING PRO, you know that for thirty years Steven Pressfield (GATES OF FIRE, THE AFGHAN CAMPAIGN etc.) wrote spec novel after spec novel before any publisher took him seriously. How did he finally break through? Ignoring just about every rule of commercial book publishing, Pressfield's "first" novel not only became a major bestseller (over 250,000 copies sold), it was adapted into a feature film directed by Robert Redford and starring Matt Damon, Will Smith, and Charlize Theron. Where did he get the idea? What magical something did THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE have that his previous manuscripts lacked? Why did Pressfield decide to write a novel when he already had a well established screenwriting career? How does writing a publishable novel really work? Taking a page from John Steinbeck's classic JOURNAL OF A NOVEL, Steven Pressfield offers answers for these and scores of other practical writing questions in THE AUTHENTIC SWING.
