On the horizon: Things

I have been deep in research mode the last few days.  Instead of writing, I have been reading.  Specifically, about corvids, beginning with an awesome book gifted to me by a wonderful friend – Bird Brains, the Intelligence of Crows, Ravens, Magpies and Jays.  I have a few more books on ravens to read through and then I start on some about shamanism.  Hopefully the men in the basement will get to work on all the interesting stuff that’ll be filtering down to them.

I am also contemplating starting a new project – I’m at the stage of working out if it’s going to be feasible.  I asked this question on Twitter and Facebook, so I’ll ask it here as well:

Which female Australian speculative fiction writers do you think are a “must read” in order to understand the shape of the field?

I’m interested in writers currently publishing as well as publishing in the past, of both short and long form fiction.

So far, I’ve had suggested: Margo Lanagan, Lucy Sussex, Rosaleen Love and Leanne Frahms, Kaaron Warren and Glenda Larke.
