Description:

This is the second in what is fast becoming a popular line of ATC swaps dedicated to women throughout history and from every walk of life. It is our duty as modern women to pay tribute to all those lovely ladies who have come before us and learn from them as we move forward into our futures.

Future swaps will include: First Ladies, Female Artists, Fashion Designers, Female Authors and Poetesses, Movie Stars, and many more! Feel free to email me your ideas too :)

+++++++++

Fiction Literature has been a staple in the hearts and minds of people since it was just story telling passed from generation to generation. The characters, stories, and life lessons have entertained us, taught us, and maybe even made us cry since long before we even learned to read our first words.

When we think of our favorite books we usually hold dear to our hearts that one character who triumphed above all else, or who held our attention by being so similar to us. They had our hopes or our dreams, our ambitions or our downfalls but most importantly we went on a journey with them that capture our attentions and held in our minds.

She could be Catherine from Wuthering Heights, Cleopatra from Daughter of the Nile, Scarlett from Gone With The Wind, or any one of hundreds from any of the incredible books written about strong, amazing women throughout history.

+++++++

ATCs will be of standard size (2.5 x 3.5 inches) and will include an image(s) of your chosen heroine along with her name, and the name of the book she resides in somewhere into your work. The image of your heroine can be from the cover if she was featured, of the actress who played her if they made it into a film, or even your own interpretation. Include any decorative elements that harken to her journey and personality to really make it one of a kind.

Remember to add to the back of your ATC the name of the swap, the edition numbers, your name AND swap-bot screen name, and the date the work was created.

No profiles with unexplained 1's or 3's in the past 6 months.

I will angel if anyone slips up but let's make this a positive swap and follow through on it :) Please message me BEFORE giving a bad rating to see if I can help fix the situation at all.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for any info or clarification, happy swapping!

You could just put it out there to your partner that it may be a little late. I sure whoever they are, they would understand especially if it's a package worth waiting on ;)

Does it have to be classical lit or can current genre heroines apply? I really hated most of the classical lit I was forced to read.

I was wondering the same thing as Shadowspun ^^. I have alot of heroines from books but the novels are from the 1970's to Now.

MadameCupcake 09/10/2011 #

Any heroine in ANY form of literature from ANY period or genre :)
