seananmcguire: trilobiter: sarahreesbrennan: THIS IS SO AWESOME. So many names of writers I love. And me too! I find this picture fascinating. While obviously not a comprehensive picture of every kind of writing, it is a fairly comprehensive picture of a certain flavor of fiction. And in selecting authors to fill each spot, the person who made the selections picked all women authors, except for one. I haven’t read more than a few of these authors, but I have enjoyed the ones I have. Seeing them all laid out like this is kind of a big motivator to read more of them. They were making a point with their selections: the original, non-ironic, totally “what I just picked the best people, why are you looking at me funny” version of this graphic was all male authors, with one woman (who had a gender-neutral name and could have been included by mistake). -- source link
