Writing for Young Females - video

Comic book writer and historian Trina Robbins shares her thoughts on writing comics for young females—an audience that has long been ignored by the comics industry. Librarians and teachers value the ability to reach this broader audience, because there were few comic books aimed at young women. Finding this niche audience grew out of Robbins's own love for reading about strong, female heroines. She simply wrote what she liked and found that other young women enjoyed the same stories.
