Ozma As A Romantic Heroine
Ruth Plumly Thompson had Ozma insist that she will never get married, in Kabumpo in Oz.
However, several published apocryphal Oz books depict Ozma being romanced and married by various Gary Stu-type characters.
Baum himself, however, hinted that Ozma may not be interested in men at all. She and Dorothy are seen in "The Emerald City of Oz" walking through a garden holding hands and sharing kisses.
In unofficial works after the 1990s, Ozma apparently became engaged to a man named Milo Starling in the "Umbrella Man of Oz" trilogy by Charles Phipps, published through a vanity press.
Another story in which Ozma acquires a boyfriend was written by David Hardenbrook, which stars a young and lovable computer geek named Dan Maryk.

Famous quotes containing the word romantic:
“In short, the building becomes a theatrical demonstration of its functional ideal. In this romanticism, High-Tech architecture is, of course, no different in spirit—if totally different in form—from all the romantic architecture of the past.”
—Dan Cruickshank (b. 1949)
