This is actually a WRITING Post!
My Valens Legacy series (written under my penname), for example, had a readership that was fifty percent women!
That's you? That was my favorite series from 2017-2022.
And yes, I can attest that he knows how to write female characters.
Yup, that was me. I mentioned in book 4 (I think?) that it was my pen name.
My wife opened up e-mail and was presented with that title. 😳
She thought it was funny once I explained the concept to her. 😁
Of course, I had an "Oh, no, John Ringo!" moment before that until I could decipher the meaning. 🤣
And here I thought this title would lead to a discussion about men in women's sports or some such. Turns out I was wrong, but it was interesting.
I hadn't thought about that.
If you had would these gems have been dropped upon our heads?
I honestly have no idea. I was mostly just trying to focus on writing advice to try an encourage people to write better characters.
Me too. Or at least in the same general area. I was thinking of the great Gun's and Roses song:
Take me down to transgender city
Where the girls have dicks and the guys have titties.
Now to forward this to the writers in my family -- ? ?
If they haven't heard the first comment being bandied around in writing groups or talked about in other writing forums, then it's time that they do! :-)
