If you are writing young adult fiction and haven't caught Casey McCormick's post on romance in YA yet, I suggest you stop in and check it out. The questions she poses, not only in the post itself but also in her follow-up comments, will help you make your novel stronger.

And while you are on Casey's blog, take time to look around! She does an amazing job writing it, and her agent profiles are fantastic.
Happy reading,
