: Re: How to write a homosexual character, whose homosexuality isn't the point of the story? I'm writing a modern fantasy novel, with a female protagonist whose principal romantic interest is another

I wanna write modern fantasy that just happened to have a lesbian character.

So, do that.

When the love interest enters the scene, your protagonist is interested. That's all. That's what you'd do with a straight character. Don't overthink it, don't have her come out with fireworks or tears, just write her sexuality as one facet of her personality.

Try Ash, by Malinda Lo, as an example. It's a recasting of Cinderella which happens to have a lesbian romance along the way.
