A Basic Renovation by Sandra Antonelli

In a recent interview about her debut novel A Basic Renovation Sandra commented on not relating to younger heroines in contemporary romance fiction due to their relative 'inexperience'. Needless to say, I leapt at the chance to hear Sandras thoughts on the subject. This is, as it turns out, Sandras area of expertise, and is something that she looks at not just in her fiction, but also in her PhD research.

Local romance author Sandra Antonelli and I have been in touch over Twitter and through the site for a while now, but first properly connected over an interview I did late last year with author Maggie Dana about middle-aged protagonists and their representation in fiction.
