πŸ’‘ Expert Tips for Romantasy

  • 1

    Fae romance and court intrigue settings are the dominant romantasy backdrop.

  • 2

    The romance must be central β€” not a subplot β€” or it will not satisfy this audience.

  • 3

    ACOTAR-inspired settings (fae courts, dark magic, enemies to lovers) dominate.

  • 4

    Spicy content is expected; clean romantasy is a distinct, smaller niche.
