The Story Company India announces an online writing workshop on Writing Romantic Comedy led by author Harini Srinivasan.

Fall in love with writing all over again.

What makes readers stay up all night turning pages of a romantic comedy? It is rarely just romance. It is the spark between two unforgettable characters, the banter that makes us laugh out loud, the emotional tension that keeps us invested, and the quiet moments that make us believe that love, in all its messy, imperfect glory, is worth rooting for.

If you have ever wanted to write stories that make readers laugh, sigh, swoon and smile, this workshop is for you.

Join acclaimed author Harini Srinivasan for an engaging two-day online workshop from The Story Company India on Writing Romantic Comedy: Crafting Chemistry, Conflict & Connection, where she will take you behind the scenes of one of the most beloved genres in contemporary fiction.

Over two focused one-hour sessions, you will explore:

The difference between romance and romantic comedy, and why it matters.
Creating protagonists readers genuinely care about.
Writing chemistry that feels natural, believable and irresistible.
Building emotional tension and conflict without losing the humour.
Understanding classic romance tropes and using them with freshness.
A simple, practical framework for plotting a satisfying romantic arc from first meeting to happily-ever-after (or happily-for-now).

Whether you are writing your first novel, experimenting with short fiction, or looking to add warmth, wit and emotional depth to your storytelling, this workshop will give you practical tools you can begin using immediately.
