Jane-of-all-genres editor Elizabeth M.S. Flynn shares the secrets of building a super-heroine to the Futuristic Fantasy & Paranormal (FFP) online chapter of Romance Writers of America on February 7, 2026.

Is creating a super-heroine different from creating a super-hero? Is Wonder Woman more super than Superman is wondrous? Writers who are looking to write about not just a super-hero, but one who is distinctly female, distinctly powerful, and not defined by her relationship to someone else should attend this Zoom workshop!

You’ll get a close look at how super-heroines are shaped: their strengths and vulnerabilities, their origins, and their histories, and then how to artfully manipulate these building blocks into a memorable and relatable super-heroine . Learn the pressures, expectations, and influences that tend to shape a woman’s story differently from a man’s—both in fiction and in real life—and how those differences affect character choices. There’s no need to invent rules, but you will understand what’s actually at work when a super-heroine comes into being.
