Dear Publishers: Call for Books by Women to Review

If you haven’t heard, there’s this thing called the Russ Pledge making the rounds in the science fiction and fantasy community.  This SF Signal Mind Meld, which features an entry by one of our venerable hosts, is quite illuminating.  Having looked through our interviews in the last few weeks (and in the coming weeks), we realize that we’ve been hit with an extraordinary number of menfolk.  Don’t take that the wrong way, though.  We love the menfolk just fine, but only three of our ten interviews in the history of this podcast were with women, and all of our upcoming interviews are with men. So, we want to know:  where are the female science fiction writers (or fantasy, for that matter)?  If you’re out there and would like us to review your book (and possibly have you on the show), send us an email (skiffyandfanty[at]gmail[dot]com).  We want to hear from you, or your publisher (or both)! Bring it on, ladies.  We’re ready for it. (P.S.:  If you’re curious, the three women we’ve interviewed are Celine Kiernan (part one; part two), Lauren Beukes, and Mary Ann Mohanraj.)
