How to Write Heroines

Last week, I had the privilege of posting on Nancy Kelley’s blog about How to Write Heroines. I got to unleash a bit about one of my biggest writing pet peeves: out of context historical characters.

Nothing ruins a historical novel for me quicker than a character who is so far ahead of her time that she is more representative of modern thought than a product of her actual context.

Please stop by Nancy’s blog and share your thoughts on the matter!
