Would anyone like to comment on why there's such a thing as "women's fiction" but not "men's fiction" ?

Martha White commented on the blog post 'NaNoWriMo? It's Not For Everyone'
The diet metaphor rings true. I couldn't have said it better, myself. By the same token, thirty days of having no time for self-editing during the creative process can be very freeing. So can turning off the computer and taking out a pencil and…

Thanks Martha. Let me know what you think if you read it. People tell me they really couldn't guess the ending!

Martha White commented on the blog post 'Women's Efforts Are Rarely Noted As They Should Be'
I wonder whether part of the difference here is economic -- that many women are reading books from their libraries, while men are reading books from the bookstores? It's just a thought, but women are certainly more economically challenged than…

Martha White replied to the discussion 'Tell us which book YOU bought in support of the women of She Writes!'
I'm enjoying Church of the Dogs by Kaya McLaren (Viking) which has clear thinking on women's roles -- whether grandmother, wife, mother, or friend. Oh -- and great dogs, too.

The Boston gathering will be hosted by none other than Jaclyn Friedman, author of "Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power and a World Without Rape (and one of Publishers' Weekly's Top 100 Books of 2009)," and visionary leader of Women, Action Media (WAM!). At the meetup writers will take part in the She Writes "Book Communion," where attendees arrive with one book, their own or another She Writers', new or gently used, and leave with another book as a meaningfully way to support one another's work. We will also be blowing out a candle and making a wish for our upcoming writing year -- along with She Writers gathering in 16 cities around the country. I hope you will be part of this historic (well, at least kind of cool) occasion, and RSVP now to Jaclyn here.

Jeannette LeSure commented on the blog post 'How to Write Memoir? 1. Forget Writing Prompts and Exercises 2. Stake Out Your Territory'
While I agree that we can get carried away and even use prompts and exercises as effective avoidance techniques to tell ourselves, well, we ARE writing something, I found two books and a couple of classes to be enormously helpful in getting me going…

This is so beautiful. Thank you for your generous spirit and for sharing it. I am slowly working on a memoir that has been "near finished" for two years. I'm struggling not to let writing be "the first to go," when life gets…
