I have long admired and read the books that wind up on the lists of the banned. And I realized, as I thought about my very small stack of work, it fits, from the shortest poem to the entire first novel. But why, more specifically?
There is no patriarchy in the world of Everland Bay. Women and female creatures of all sorts run the place. It is not that there are no males, it is just that the ones who are there are kind, good, reliable. They cook, they knit, they care for those around them. They participate in ways that make things better.
And there are many other points of likely banishment, which I will share, in other work, over time.
What about you?
