About
Pop Culture Heroines is a forum where we hope to present the very best writings on strong female characters featured in popular culture. Here we’ll encourage writers to explore themes, comment on and debate characters that are often overshadowed by their male counterparts.
The site has been set up because a lot of these characters are overlooked or dismissed as being light weight or without substance. Other characters are delegated the often limited role of sex object. Female characters can be beautiful or sexy without that being their sole attribute. You will not find an essay here that can be summarised with ’she’s hot’.
We accept submissions from writers no matter what your background is.
All I ask is that the piece be over 150 words - intelligent and well written.
At this stage if you are interested in writing a piece please email me (using the contact form) the topic you’re thinking of and I’ll let you know if it’s what we’re looking for. Over the coming weeks we will also be opening a forum where you should be able to discuss your ideas before getting them accepted on the main page.
Best Regards
Lee
