Nothing is easy in writing. I don't think for anyone. But dialogue is probably what comes most naturally to me.

I think having an uncompromising ideology eventually forces you out of the norm.

I think even with women who come across with a tough exterior, the interior is the same. I think you'll find this with women around the word: some women, because of their circumstances, are forced to be tougher, forced to cultivate tougher exteriors.

Why are some people highly principled and willing to do anything for their principles, while most of us are not? And I am willing to not only ask, but also answer the question.

There are different types of readers. People draw lines at which three things intersect: the character, the author, and the reader.

In my experience of women, women have a greater capacity. Maybe women, even very pragmatic ones, are less guarded about showing emotions.

It's not for the writer to say whether the thing is successful or not.
