Women in SF&F Month: Week in Review and Final Guests
Thanks to last week’s guests, it was another great week of articles and recommendations! There are only three guests left, although this month’s event won’t officially be over right at the end of April. I’ll be writing one or two more related posts, plus we will be releasing the final list of favorite fantasy and science fiction books by women that Renay from Lady Business is working on. (You can add your favorites here if you have not already!) Before […]
Women in SF&F Month: Sarah from Bookworm Blues
Today’s guest is Sarah from one of my must-read blogs, Bookworm Blues! Sarah reads and reviews a lot of fantasy and science fiction books, and she has an enthusiasm for reading that shines through her great, well-written reviews. Last year, she also hosted an amazing series on her blog in which she gathered some guest posts by authors and bloggers to discuss disabilities in science fiction and fantasy, and she is planning to do the same this year. Right now, […]
Women in SF&F Month: Amanda Carlson (with Book Giveaway!)
Today’s guest is urban fantasy author Amanda Carlson! Last year, a prequel novella in her Jessica McClain series, Blooded, was released, and it was soon followed by the first book in the series and her debut novel, Full Blooded.

I’ve been hearing that these books are riveting, and I’m thrilled that the author is here to discuss sex in urban fantasy—and I’m also quite excited to […]
Women in SF&F Month: Heidi from Bunbury in the Stacks
Today’s guest is Heidi, who runs the excellent blog Bunbury in the Stacks! I discovered her blog last year and it quickly became one of my favorites.

I also find interesting books highlighted in her “With Bated Breath” feature, and I’m a fan of her feature […]
Women in SF&F Month: Seanan McGuire
Today’s guest is urban fantasy, science fiction, and horror author Seanan McGuire! (You may also know her as Mira Grant.) Her debut novel, Rosemary and Rue, was released in 2009. Since then, she’s won the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer, become a New York Times bestselling author, and set some records for Hugo Award nominations, including but not limited to becoming the first person to appear as a finalist 5 times in one year. She’s also won […]
Women in SF&F Month: Freda Warrington (with Book Giveaway)
Today’s guest is fantasy author Freda Warrington! She’s written several books, but I discovered her work with the first of her stand alone Aetherial Tales novels and the first of her novels to be published here in the United States, Elfland. Character driven and beautifully written, it made me want to read everything she’d ever penned, a wish that has only grown stronger the more I read of her work. Her writing is elegant and effortless; her stories, myths, and […]
