\"\"Yesterday, March 8, was International Women\u2019s Day \u2013 huzza! Even if some days (for example, when the head of the UN talks about 300 years more until full equality) it feels like a case of three steps forward and two back!<\/p>\n

However, even when there is a long way left to go, I feel it\u2019s important to recognize how far we\u2019ve come. Some years back now, when New Zealand celebrated 121 years of Women\u2019s Suffrage I featured women characters from my then published books by way of celebration.<\/p>\n

Today, I\u2019m posting links to those posts and the featured characters again. In the spirit of International Women\u2019s Day, I hope you\u2019ll click through and enjoy:<\/p>\n
