From the Trenches Anthology, Cover

Hopefully available at WFC in November, containing a nice little brutal women piece of fiction from yours truly.

LeGuin, Boys’ Own Adventure, and the Fine Art of Genderfucking

Are there not enough good SF/F storytellers? Not enough good storytellers writing about radical feminism/gender/body politics?

Or, you know, is feminism just so five minutes ago that we’re all content to write about strong female heroines who are just assumed to be “equal” in whatever made-up society we throw together - where men are men and women are men, too?

Cause if that’s radical feminism, I’d love to see what we’d call a body of work today that was written in the same angry, brutal vein as Russ’s fiction.

We’d probably call it terrorism.
