Cheers to 2025: 365 Days of HEAs

Romance & Co. New Year’s Resolutions

RomCo’s 2025 New Year’s Resolutions:

1. Read more swoon-worthy hard copies in public.

2. Tell men that I only read serious literature when I see Infinite Jest on their shelf. Proceed to discuss Ice Planet Barbarians.

   

3. Use ‘turgid’ in at least five conversations (luckily RomCo doesn’t have an HR department.)

   

   

4. Wear a bodice. Rip said bodice.

5. Convince someone I am a dragon-shifter. Small still children count.

6. Whenever someone mentions an advanced degree say: I would have been a great proficient, had I ever learned.

   

7. Incite a duel so that my husband is forced to defend my honor.

   

8. Search the local woods for multi-centenarian fae—probably my last year before I age out of their dating pool.

9. Discover a mythical creature that is just beyond romance redemption.

10. Continue writing about the genre, characters, and stories we all love so much.

Hi everyone!

On a more serious note, these past few months have been so exciting! It means the world to me to have found a community of like-minded peers. Heading into 2025, most of my actual New Year’s resolutions center around Romance & Co. I want to ensure that I’m providing content that resonates most with all of you. While I will certainly continue to write about topics that interest me, there are so many to choose from—so a little direction from you would be incredibly helpful.

I also plan to formalize my writing schedule in early 2025. There will either be a weekly or fortnightly free newsletter (see poll below). Additionally, I’m creating a separate subscription for those interested in book reviews. Paid subscribers will receive one or two extra pieces a month, featuring interviews with authors, bookstore owners, reviewers, etc. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Wishing everyone an HEA in 2025!

xoxo RomCo
