      Imagine if I'd sold more of the approved sorts of stories as a desperate 20-something. I could've ended up stuck writing stories I didn't believe in, unhappy, twisted endings that crushed readers' hopes at the resolution, or hollow, unnatural characters with pathological streaks.

      There's so much to unlearn. So I was happy to find these reviews that clarify what I hadn't been able to pinpoint before in certain story tropes. I do want to write excellent female characters to lead in my stories, but not at the expense of the male characters.

      In one of my stories, I do touch on supplanting a male leader with a female one, but she doesn't get there by being a better man than a man can be, and ultimately she isn't happy there. It's stressful and lonely, and there's no end of people with unreasonable demands.

      It isn't that she's incapable of making tough decisions, but she'd prefer a smaller focus for her loyalty. Her major strengths don't serve this role, so she's stifled & lacks support. When the original leader is healed, she gladly returns his power & gets on with her own goals.

      In other stories, I feature both a male lead and a female lead, who work together to restore each other to their potential. This is a satisfying sort of story for me. I don't see it often in contemporary stories. Going solo against all odds is sometimes noble, but also sad.

      The expectation that the only way to do things is completely alone is downright depressing. But the popular culture drives us increasingly apart from extended family & permanent relationships. We *can* survive alone - it's just not optimal & we should stop pretending it is.

      I think the near-mandatory tropes of dysfunctional families and unhappy relationships are hurting young readers' perception of the world, so I try to look elsewhere for conflicts to drive my stories. So far, I think I'm doing well.

      I've been following him awhile so I probably have 😊 though periodically I go back and refresh my memory with the good posts so I can finish breaking out of Writing Major brainwashing 😊

      I *really* hope he reads my novel when it comes out. I had some tricky stuff in there dealing with an oppressive alien culture that used a caste system & conditioning to warp masculinity to serve certain ends, and now I have a character to rehabilitate from that in the sequel 😬
