All the Women in SF&F Month guest posts have now gone up. There’s still a couple of posts I want to write related to this before this is officially over, but this will be the last week in review post. For now, here’s what happened last week in case you missed any of the guest posts. Week In Review Here’s last week’s guests: Kenda from Lurv a la Mode shared how Seanan McGuire’s October Daye series made her more willing […]
Women in SF&F Month: Catherine Asaro
Today marks the last day of the Women in SF&F guest posts, and I can’t think of a better way to end it than with this post by Catherine Asaro about science fiction as an inspiration for young girls! Primary Inversion by Catherine Asaro is THE book that really got me interested in reading more science fiction. Although I read science fiction on occasion and enjoyed it, I’d never read a science fiction book that drew me in quite the […]
Women in SF&F Month: Ana and Thea from The Book Smugglers

Sometimes it seems like I talk about the same authors all the time, so […]

Women in SF&F Month: Kate Elliott (with Book Giveaway!)
Today’s guest is fantasy and science fiction author Kate Elliott! She is sharing her own experience with gender roles as a child and how it influenced her writing (which is fantastic, by the way!). I discovered Kate Elliott’s Spiritwalker books last year and am now a big fan of them. Cold Fire ended up being not only one of my favorite books I read last year but also that special kind of book every reader loves to find – a […]
