In this episode of Kissing Books Critique, we dive headfirst into Vicki’s brand-new first chapter, an angsty, small-town cowboy romance inspired by a classic '90s country hit. From navigating car logistics (who’s driving again?) to unpacking the emotional weight of fictional towns and old flames, we’re tackling it all with our usual blend of craft, chaos, and cackling. We discuss grounding your reader, writing character-specific setting, and how your past (and your ex) might just inspire your bestseller.
Come for the critique, stay for the snort-laughs and made-up men who hit differently.
