I started out writing a romance and discovered that my hero was waaaaaay too interested in the heroine's brother then in her and thus my writing M/M was born.

In all my innocent naivety, it never occurred to me that I was writing m/m romance. After all, there was no sex. No kissing. No hand holding. Just two guys, a prince and a spy, going off together to have adventures. My mother read the story, handed it back to me with a very odd look and told me I had some pretty decent writing skills. It never got mentioned again. I look back on that story now (in fact, I'm pretty sure I even still have it) and just shake my head at what she, apparently, found so obvious: her daughter had gone off the rails somewhere and no one had ever noticed. Something you said in your post struck me, and reminded me of this event: you mentioned not talking on the phone or going to the movies, or any other such 'normal' teenage things. Sounds like me! lol! Too busy reading and writing to be bothered.<br />Jaime Sammshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756034484406953047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1272504072511844522.post-5230959721299997462012-08-25T15:42:01.758-04:002012-08-25T15:42:01.758-04:00Hi, S.A.
