Getting PublishedWomen as Writers

Is Your Protagonist Male or Female ..?

Is your protagonist male or female? Chances are if she’s female you’re less likely to be published. Read this important piece by Nicola Griffith on the scarcity of female narratives in literary fiction in  The Seattle Review of Books

Then take a look at her blog post Books About Women Tend Not to Win Awards

No wonder Kamilla Shamsie is calling for a year of publishing women  –both issues seem intrinsically linked to me and it’s great to see a dialogue finally making headlines.
