Sean the misogynist writes about tender love
I make no apologies for creating Sean McNabb as a narcissistic, misogynistic main character. An author doesn't have to present a saint as protagonist. The MC can be downright objectionable, but he or she must be real. Are all misogynists loathsome all the time? Of course not. Sean is no different. But how do I let those small bits of laudatory humanity show through? In my case, I make Sean write chapters featuring his main character, Darrington Circe, in my novel The Search For Circe. He makes Darrington approachable and understandable. I just finished showcasing several snippets from one chapter called simply Ommi, about Circe's meeting with an interesting young woman named Ommi Martin. Circe is a marketing specialist based in Denver. He sees Ommi walking along the 16th Street Mall and asks her if she would be willing to be a source for his marketing efforts. She greets his offer with a witty reply that either he is honest in his approach or else it's the worst pick-up
