Accents, Stereotyping and Gender in WRITING, Getting It RIGHT ✍️
When writing books, accents, stereotyping, and gender can easily become problem areas if handled carelessly. In this video, I discuss how writers can approach accents, gendering, and misgendering in ways that serve the story without falling into lazy stereotypes or unnecessary offence.
This is not about being afraid to write characters; it is about being aware of how choices on the page are received by readers. I share practical ways to think about voice, character identity and intent, while still enjoying the freedom to write and create the best books you can.
If you write fiction or non-fiction and want your work to feel thoughtful, intentional and respectful, this conversation is worth having.
