ha ha, yeah. Luckily the women at my writer&#039;s group set me straight about the female POV. My worst offenses were fight scenes between two girls. They told me &quot;less punching, more hair-pulling&quot;. That really helped. It&#039;s an interesting challenge to write the opposite sex POV though.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[YES! This is so challenging. I write romance and have had to consciously alter my description when in male POV.  No admiring tip-tilted noses and eyes like silvery moons, more er... graphic! Shorter sentences, more action orientated.  Involved interviewing my husband (much to his embarassment).

Another great opposite gender protagonist - Will Stanton in Susan Cooper&#039;s Dark is Rising trilogy (love those books).]]></description>
