Re: get a woman to proof read for you Kylia Skydancer Send a noteboard - 07/09/2009 06:40:45 AM
Lots of writers write books that are first person but from the opposite gender. I would avoid things that are highly female in nature. Doing a first person from the point of view of woman giving birth may not be a good choice.

Either way have one or better yet more woman proof read it. Of course having someone proof read your work is never a bad choice.


or menstruation. that's probably a bad idea.

It is fine if it is done well. I have seen it done very well and embarrassingly badly. Tashmere - 04/09/2009 09:22:44 AM 558 Views

Honestly, I don't think that it would be that hard for a man to write from a womans view point. Tashmere - 04/09/2009 09:28:19 PM 524 Views
