\nPart something in an irregular series.\n<\/p>\n

\nSo yeah, today I would like to spotlight some of the female bloggers I started reading in the past of couple of weeks, partially thanks to the whole ongoing SFWA kerfuffle. Everytime we’ve had an outbreak of sexism in science fiction fandom it also has brought new female voices to the foreground and this time hasn’t been any different.\n<\/p>\n

\nNatalie Luhrs<\/a> has been one of the most sensible voices during the SFWA controversy, as well as with the more recent Loncon Jonathan Ross fiasco. Beyond that, she also has a great ability to find interesting and thoughtful links.\n<\/p>\n

\nS. L. Huang<\/a> like Luhrs has been a voice of reason during the recent sexism scandals, is a new writer whose first book will be published this year and who keeps writing great posts on the same subjects I would’ve written about, but she does it better.\n<\/p>\n

\nSusan Abernethy<\/a> writes about history and her blog is a treasure trove of posts about well known and not so well known parts of history, especially British history.\n<\/p>\n

\nLoretta Chase & Isabella Bradford<\/a> also write about history, both in their dayjobs as bestselling writers of historical romances and on their blog. They seem to have a real affinity for the Georgian era, but roam wide and far and have a knack of finding links to other interesting blogs — like Susan Abernethy’s above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
