I am so glad to hear these books have been a help! As for a political or worldview one, I think that one could be a bit difficult to research, especially as a person’s beliefs in those areas stem so heavily on the individual experiences a character has, and the people (parents, teacher, family, friends, organizations, etc.) who acted as influencers. This would be very customized to each character, it might be hard to write.

Have you ever thought about writing a Political / Ideological Lens Thesaurus?

Your work is MUCH appreciated!

Hi, Franca. We’ve batted around the idea of thesauruses that cater to one genre, but the idea never pans out because one of our main purposes for creating and offering the tools that we do is that they’re practical for a wide audience of writers. Another roadblock is that while Angela and I may read romance, we’re not romance writers. Or science fiction, chick lit, etc. So, with our limited knowledge, we just aren’t the right people to write these kinds of books.

Regarding a bundle, a paper copy containing all of our books would be just too big and expensive. We’ve toyed with the idea of creating an ebook containing all the files, but the work it would take to combine all of those files and make sure all the links are working…oi. So far, the amount of work has kept us from pulling the trigger on this. But it’s in the back of our minds, and is something we do come back to periodically, so it’s possible that this could make an appearance in the future.

Do you think you will ever come up with a thesaurus just for romance writers? Also, do you ever offer the option of bundling your books? Thanks!

Hi, Emily. This is a great question. Unfortunately, we don’t. A paper copy containing all of our books would be just too big and expensive. We’ve toyed with the idea of creating an ebook containing all the files, but the work it would take to combine all of those files and make sure all the links are working…oi.

Have a great day!

Hi Michael,

Currently we have no plans to expand any of our books except for Emotion Amplifiers, which is a companion ebook to the Emotion Thesaurus. Currently it’s only an ebook, and we’d like to expand it in a year or two.

I just don’t want to buy it now, then in a few months you bring out another edition. Look forward to your reply.

I know the first book was published in 2013, and I am hoping you will update it very soon, like you did with the Emotional Thesaurus?

I don’t know that I would recommend a specific book, but I would check out Margie Lawson’s Writing Academy. She has lecture packets that will really help you increase your writing sophistication and cadence.
