I guess I'm one of the random people. I'm a librarian working for the US
National Library of Medicine in Chicago. I'm on this list mostly because
Laura Quilter is my friend, and I have her to thank for making me aware of
feminist SF literature (and for loaning so many books to me). I've been
reading science fiction and fantasy since before I can remember, though I
never sought out feminist works. In retrospect, it appears that a few of
my favorite authors are feminists (Margaret Atwood, Ursula K. LeGuin,
Tanith Lee...etc.).
I do have to admit that I filter this list into a mailbox that I only open
about twice a month. I've enjoyed reading the discussions and reviews.
Take care, CS
