Another list of childless female writers

"Think of the literature of writers Dorothy Parker, Ayn Rand, Lillian Hellman, Beatrix Potter, Isak Dinesen, Rachel Carson, Margaret Mitchell, Jane Austen, Helen Keller, Emily Bronte, and Simone de Beauvoir.... These women have enriched our lives immensely in ways other than bringing children into the world."
