So I am writing a book, and half of it is from the POV of a girl... and I happen to be a very ignorant boy who is totally clueless when it comes to girls.
I have tried writing according to their perspective, and each time I get the comment of "This sounds very masculine" which is only normal because I am that way, but I want to make the character sound like a girl, and its difficult for me.
So how do you write a character and make it seem like its a girl, even when you don't tell the reader its so? What do girls see when they look at a picture? And, quite honestly, how often do they cry? I know that is a strange question, but I don't want to have the girl crying at weird times--or not crying at all, even at times when it is necessary.
So just general comments from girls (or guys, even, if you know this stuff) on how to write a female character would be super helpful.
I pay in reviews, and lots and lots of cookies. Always cookies.
