Male or Female?
by Shaye Author IconMail Icon
I have an idea now pretty fleshed out in my head. The problem? I can't figure out if my main character is male or female. I'm used to writing from a female POV as it's the easiest for me because I write in first person. The question is, do I step out of my comfort zone or stick with female?

My main question for you guys is, have you ever done anything like that? Have you always written from one genders POV and tried a different one? Any tips or suggestions?
