Writing as a Male Protagonist With Luana Ehrlich (Episode 110)
“I think I write in first person in my male protagonist because when I was growing up, my dad would bring home books from the library mostly sci-fi fiction and mysteries,” Luana said. “They looked much more interesting to me than the Bobbsey Twins I’d finished reading.

I think it never occurred to me when I started writing that I would ever write in anything but as a male protagonist and as in first person.”
