“Here’s all you have to know about men and women: Women are crazy, men are stupid. And the main reason women are crazy is that men are stupid.” (George Carlin). I enjoy reading fiction as well as writing fiction. To be honest, I enjoy fiction written by men as opposed to women. I was told recently by a friend (female) who read my book that it was obviously written by a man. I reflected a bit on that and I think George Carlin was on the right track, at least about women. Four of the five main female characters in my book are flawed, everything from depression and mental illness to promiscuity and keeping secrets. How did they get that way? My women readers will probably say “stupid men”.
