#WordWeavers 27 April cont'd: Actually, yestercay's #WritersCoffeeClub asked us to recommend a book about writing, and I didn't want to be boring as I have mentioned King's On Writing a few times in these games, so I didn't say anything, but A Room of One's Own is also a must read.
Divinely written and extremely sharp, Woolf is right on the money. Like so many who were complaining about 'Women in Writing' or 'Women in SF' panels that we had so many of 15 years ago, Woolf was asked to speak>

#WordWeavers 27 April #WritersCoffeeClub 26 April cont'd: >on 'Women and fiction' and basically responded: 'What the fuck do you expect me to do with this? Those two topics are huge and you could mean anything! OK, fine, I'm going to address why this is such a fucking stupid topic: we can't know anything about how women specifically relate to fiction until women have had the same financial security and privacy that men have had for millennia and women have been denied.' obvs, less swearing>
