Lovestruck: A 90 Day Writing Sprint Group Programme

Romance isn’t ‘having a moment’ right now … Romance is the moment!!

In the 2020s, romance is the biggest genre on the planet. It dominates bestseller lists, streaming platforms, and reader obsession levels everywhere. From laugh-out-loud rom-coms to epic romantasy, nail-biting romantic suspense and beyond, audiences want love stories that feel – intensely, immediately, and memorably.

Lovestruck is for writers who don’t just want to write romance novels. They want to make hearts race. They want readers to swoon, gasp, cry, binge, and stay up far too late saying just one more chapter.

Whether you’re writing a contemporary, historical, romantasy, steamy, sci-fi or romantic suspense novel, Lovestruck is where your love stories level up. And this time? You’re not doing it alone!

What You’ll Get

• Eight weeks of focused, high-energy coaching in a small cohort of just 8 romance writers – your own creative coven.
• Weekly Zoom sessions and an exclusive Telegram group so you can post pages, ask questions, talk with your peers on the programme, and have accountability.
• Hands-on exercises that sharpen tension, chemistry, pacing, and emotional stakes, so every scene earns its place.
• Sub-genre mastery, so you know exactly why a YA romance devastates, a romantasy obsesses, or a rom-com delights.
• Peer support and real feedback, because great romance is built through connection, not isolation.
• Instinctive storytelling techniques that make your romance feel natural, immersive, and impossible to put down.

PLUS …

Guest Mentors: Romance Royalty

You’ll also get exclusive sessions with two absolute heavyweights of modern romance:

💖 Jenny Kane

Rom-Com Queen and bestselling author

Jenny is the author of the beloved Abi’s House and numerous other romantic hits that blend heart, humour, and emotional depth with effortless charm. She knows exactly how to craft romance that feels warm, witty, and deeply human – and how to keep readers coming back for more.

🔥 Alison Norrington

One half of writing duo Elli J. Morrigan

Alison co-created the smash-hit romantasy Ashen Crown, an Audible Original that proves romance and fantasy don’t just coexist — they ignite. She’ll dive into chemistry, world-building, and emotional stakes that hit hard in high-concept romance.

This is real insight from writers who are doing the thing, right now.

Who Lovestruck Is For

• Writers ready to level up their romance craft.
• Novelists who want to quit procrastinating and finish their draft.
• Authors who already have a draft, but want tailored guidance on finishing their edits.
• Novelists who wants personalised feedback on their draft, as well as individualised positioning and submissions advice.
• Storytellers who want their work to spark emotion and linger long after the last page.
• Anyone writing romance of any kind or subgenre – and determined to make it hit.

Why Lovestruck Works

Romance isn’t about meet-cutes or ticking trope boxes. It’s about connection, stakes, and chemistry.

In Lovestruck, you’ll learn how to:

• Make readers feel every heartbeat.
• Build tension that pulls them relentlessly forward.
• Create characters readers fall hard for.
• Deliver endings that stick — and get talked about.
• Harness the unstoppable popularity of romance across all genres to write stories readers crave.

This isn’t a passive course. It’s a creative ignition. If you’re done with “fine” love scenes and ready to write romance that lands, lingers, and lasts, Lovestruck is your next step.

💌 Spots are strictly limited to 8 writers to ensure maximum support, feedback, and momentum.

Feedback from Lucy V’s Previous 90 Day Writing Sprints

‘Great course and very useful to have reference docs on Telegram, which can be used at any stage.’ – Eimear Kilcullen

‘I needed to actually get started on a novel that had been bugging me for years. The support from tutor and other course members was helpful, and it was great to have someone looking over your shoulder and guiding you as you work.’ – Rachael Howard

‘The feedback and sharing aspect was helpful. Seeing what other people were doing inspired me and made me want to work harder. It was also lovely to see how much everyone supported each other.’ – Helen Ward

‘Constructive feedback, carefully given, based on in depth personal and industry experience has changed me as a writer. When I look back at the first chapters I submitted, and the most recent submissions – chalk and cheese. It’s given me confidence that I can tell these stories the way I want and need to tell them.’ – Ruth Morgan

Let’s Make 2026 The Year You Get Lovestruck & Write Romance That Hits!

‘Lucy created a brilliant writing group. Everyone was incredibly creative and brought so much to the program. They were generous. Helpful. Gave great feedback … And Lucy was a brilliant mentor. She held us together while guiding us towards our goals. I’ve finished the programme with more confidence. A finished draft. A coherent synopsis. A great logline and hook. A treasure chest of resources and audio drops. What an amazing experience!’ – Jane McGowan

‘The knowledge Lucy shared was phenomenal! But it was also practical. There’s a lot of general advice, but also lots that was tailored to me specifically, not just Lucy describing what she’s done then leaving us to figure out how it might apply to ourselves. I’ve just loved working with Lucy and being part of the group was an absolute privilege. I needed the accountability, but the community, support and love from the group was amazing. I’ve learnt so much, and my writing is more confident and focused, but it’s also been spurred on by watching the others in the group develop, not to mention following all their stories unfold! If you get the chance to do one of these sprints, DO IT!’ – Aisha Rangasamy
