Still passing as male

[julesjones]

Now there's a coincidence. I was in a conversation elsewhere yesterday about female authors of m/m pretending to be men for commercial reasons, and pointed out that readers keep thinking of me as male even though I have never explicitly presented myself as a man, and have in fact made efforts to correct reviews that referred to me as male.

And this afternoon someone linked to my post about my Cybook, and referred to me as "he". Okay, this is a stranger and someone from outside the world of romance epublishing who was obviously misled by the subject matter of my books, but it's not that many months since the last time a romance reader did it. (I'm not going to embarrass her by naming her.:-) I suppose I *could* redecorate the blog in pink bows and hearts, but I'm not really into pink. Which is doubtless a contributing factor in why so many people think I'm a guy, or at least can't decide.
