Hey everyone, who are your favorite female authors / books by women ? Bonus point for something with grand scope or excellent prose. Experimental is OK. Thanks ^_−☆

“É a promessa de vida no teu coração […]” ‘God’s forgiveness sea’ made me feel differently about my own snowball of sand. Love you always.

Last month, the night before leaving for a trip, I stood in the shower & had the thought that I was ready to write again. Months of writer's block were ended in that moment, as though a farway switch had been flipped. I can't explain it. This is to say that I'm going to start updating my website again. Happy 2026. I love everything & everyone. I love you.

I have tried so many times to write about what insomnia feels like, and never get it right. You did it beautifully here. I sometimes wonder if my imagination is *too visual*, the exact opposite of yours: when I close my eyes, I automatically visualize all sorts of things. Sometimes I can't tell whether or not I'm dreaming. Bombarded with so many images all the time, it sometimes makes it difficult to write.

i really like a wizard of earthsea by ursula le guin and i haven't yet made time for Middlemarch unfortunately
parable of the sower by octavia e butler !
currently thinking about "the book of goose," by yiyun li, and "a spy in the house of love," by anais nin.
i second octavia butler and offer up ntozake shange
"miao dao" by joyce carol oates was like my favorite short story in middle school! its one of her more niche works but i just love oates writing in general.
Permafrost by Catalan writer Eva Baltasar:)
i really enjoyed toddler hunting and other stories by kono taeko!
tananarive due is one of my favorite authors, with 'the between' being my favorite of hers!
No points for creativity but Mary Shelley's Frankenstein :)
zami by audre lorde!!
recently loved "the fawn" by magda szabó
oops i was gonna say ursula k le guin and mary shelley but i was already beaten to it
"hooked" by asako yuzuki & "notes on a scandal" by zoë heller were compelling reads to me ^_^
