What’s your favorite type of character to write or read about? Let’s chat about the complexities of strong female leads!

Hey everyone! I’m curious, what’s your favorite type of character to either write or read about? I personally love complex, unhinged, yet relatable female protagonists. I find them fascinating to write because there’s so much room for depth, and it’s fun to explore the inner workings of their minds.

For example, my book The Tea Wasn't Always Sweet follows a Southern woman named Sissy who’s unapologetically herself and grapples with the chaos of life. It’s not always neat or pretty, but it feels real.

I’d love to hear from other writers or readers! Do you enjoy writing complex characters, or do you prefer a more straightforward approach? Drop your thoughts and recommendations below!
