• Women writers and artists speaking about the creative process
• Quotes on women writers and artists, and other creative women
What this blog is about
This is not a typical "quotes" blog. Rather than succinct sayings or tiny snippets of a writer's work, it is a slowly growing collection of text by and about women writers and artists. It also occasionally delves into how creative women handle marriage and children. The text is taken from creative women themselves, as well as from scholars and others writing about women in the arts.
