Thanks for your thoughts, guys. I appreciate them.

Tia — I do like writing the action scenes, which would work well with the romantic suspense.

Amy — Glad you liked the bookmarks. Let me know if you need some more. A Western? I’d never thought about that, but I do love reading them. Maybe I could do a modern-day Western … 😉

Edie — Rom com does seem to be down right now, but I think it would be fun to write one, just to see if I could.

MaryLynn — You’re right. There are lots of fairy tale spoofs out there, which is why I was sort of hesitant about that idea.

I’m really leaning toward the romantic comedy. I have an idea for the setting and some of the characters, but I can’t quite figure out the hero and heroine and how to get them together. And I need a bigger “hook” for the story. I’ll have to think on it some more …

Although I like all these ideas, the urban fairy tale is the best. however, thats already fairly cliched, if you are worried about being original, i would say the assasin.

I’d go with nr. one or two. Right now the rom. com. market is down, but it might be up again by the time you finish.

How are you at the western? The world needs some good westerns.

I got my bookmarks! They are great!!! I highly recommend them to everyone.

Number one and two both sound good to me. I think you’d write a great romantic comedy. But if you want to write a suspense, that would probably be a great departure for you after 5 Bigtime books.
