These cringey tropes are RUINING female characters
Are you tired of every female character sounding like the same snarky, stabby, emotionally unavailable warrior girl with a traumatic backstory and a dagger strapped to her thigh? Yeah… same. 😬 With BookTok and Bookstagram shaping our reading culture, it feels like every fictional woman has been shoved into the same “strong female character” mold...and tbh it’s exhausting. In this video, I’m breaking down the 5 cringey tropes that (in my humble opinion) are ruining female characters. But I’m not just here to rant—we’ll also talk about how to fix these stereotypes, with a little help from the queen of romance herself, Jane Austen. 💕📖 Grab a cup of tea and let's get into the juicy details of writing female characters who are realistic but still strong and sassy.________________________________

My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.
Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community! Receive SMS online on sms24.me
