Jane and I discuss our favorite romance tropes, from the friends-to-lovers to the makeover plot, and all the tropes in between that we cannot resist. Then Carolyn Jewel is with us to talk about female empowerment, or the lack thereof, in historical times, and how the true history of the political, economic, and social status of women can make for some painfully fascinating characters.

Mp3 is available for download as well. PLEASE for the love of God right click and save, k? Esosoft and I will thank you.

It’s all welcome because a) we are new to this and b) we don’t really know what we are doing so the wtf comments are probably all valid. The email address for the podcast is sbj.podcast@gmail.com.

Victoria Dahl joins us to talk about switching genres from historical to contemporary, living in small towns, and writing heroines with sexual authority.

Then, we discuss talking dirty – in novels.

Sarah says, “Damn, Beavis.” Jane says she doesn’t have a wide vocabulary of a very special nature, and we float the potential of a Very Special Instructional Podcast in the future. (Not really).

Some may think that Angela and we are BFFs. In truth, though, Sarah and I are not BFFs with Angie. Angie is BFF is someone far more popular* than Sarah and I and would drop us in a heartbeat to go and rock it with the Popular Person. Angie is really just a opportunist BFF which is why she agreed to be our second victim, err, guest on the Dear Bitches, Smart Authors Podcast. Cue fun, sexy music.
