John Christopher was the first spec fic author to capture my heart in the early 1980s when I was still a child. Unfortunately, it took me a while to find similar books with strong female heroines in the lead. There have been a plethora of authors who have inspired me in the past 20 years including YA authors like LJ Smith and Marianne de Pierres and adult ones like Rowena Cory Daniells and Sherrilyn Kenyon. I'm also a huge fan of many Joss Whedon for his strong female protagonists, most notably Buffy, and Echo from Dollhouse.Cheryse Durranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01778247429428503606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3578371666134702214.post-81853914997474842262013-11-19T13:28:03.518+05:302013-11-19T13:28:03.518+05:30What a great blog post!
