I read mostly scfi these days and there just are not that many new female scfi writers random thoughts Send a noteboard - 14/09/2009 04:28:31 PM
I like C. J. Cherryh but she has not put out anything interesting a while. There are some good scifi short fiction writers but there is not a lot of discussion of short fiction around here.

To be honest I don't pay attention to the gender of the writer and unless it is someone I really like I don't bother researching them.

This board is severely lacking in discussion of female authors Larry - 12/09/2009 08:11:46 AM 1194 Views

I think what you mean is this board is lacking in discussion of lesser-known authors... Legolas - 12/09/2009 10:49:56 AM 737 Views
While part of that is true, part of it really deals with a thought when I glanced through the posts Larry - 12/09/2009 10:55:07 AM 732 Views
