I don't think we ever outgrow our love of the "falling in love" aspect of a good romance. I've never written a really young heroine and for the most part the only time I think about how old they are is when I'm working out the logistics. Like if they're a single mom of a teenager or it's a reunion story etc. Skyewriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938351117986167519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6609030155206406866.post-9537719523835492016-10-27T06:57:04.266-07:002016-10-27T06:57:04.266-07:00I write about strong historical women who actually...I write about strong historical women who actually lived, and they're all ages--most of my books start when they're teenagers and end when they're way older.
