Seriously? Don’t misunderstand what I’m saying, I’m in agreement with you partly, but when you say something like this you need to be ready to defend it.

Certain people will always be uncomfortable with women having power, whether sexual, financial, cultural, etc., Women and power can be a scary thing.

I don’t agree with censoring this cover at all. Not just because I am a female artist/illustrator myself and don’t believe in that sort of thing, but also because the only “scandal” that can be derived from the image is that the man is somehow submissive to the woman here. It’s a pity THIS got some folks up in arms; it’s FAR more tasteful than some of the covers of Maxim magazine that I’ve seen.

Great post Caridad. As one of those romance readers, I certainly agree with you. I’m doing my part for women by reading as many romances as I can. )

Hi Caridad,

Great post, I’m very curious how writers come up with stories. Do you have a general idea of where the story is going (outline) or does the story just come along as you write?

Hi Caridad,

Thought-provoking and insightful post–a great start for a blog tour!

Your writing credentials are so impressive–and on top of that, you’re also a lawyer! How do you find the time to balance a high-power career with writing? How long do you write each day?

Good luck with the tour!

Thank you all for dropping by and for leaving comments. As for whether or not I get cover approval yet – the answer is that I don’t. It’s unusual to have that, although some bestselling authors do get approval on their covers. I will say that my current publisher, Grand Central Publishing, kept me apprised step-by-step and showed me the cover right away. They asked for my opinion, but it was such a great cover!

Way To Go Caridad..I think men has more things out there that shows more skin than most of our things..why can men view naked ladies but us ladies can’t view naked men. I think that is not fair at all. susan L.

Kudos to Caridad for a very powerful post. Thanks to voices like this, I believe one day romance novels will receive the recognition they so truly deserve.
