It looks like it's gonna be a perfectly normal day for Samantha at the kindergarten, until Juniper announces that Samantha is a man's name. And in this mini genderless world, that poses a problem for Samantha. Or does it?
Join the Story Strumpets and very special guest Tom or Judy Moore in discussing how to create a believable world in a story, and all the important questions that come up when writing about gender.
A big thank you to Lisa for reaching out to us and asking us to 'pick the story apart'. It was so great to talk about!
