No mention of Catherynne M Valente, whose string of otherworldly books (Palimpsest, Deathless, Girl Who Circumnavigated…series, etc) are the embodiment of weird fiction! That’s quite the slight!

All three of these women were writers of superb supernatural fiction. The list of excellent fantasy writers in the distaff line is a long one.

I’m slightly surprised Vernon Lee hasn’t showed up here, though, unless I’m misunderstanding the parameters of the list. In any case, I hope it’s appropriate to mention her name here as another recommendation.
