Tove Jansson






Tove Jansson, a Swede-Finn fantasy writer of the Moomintroll series, was a favourite of mine in my sixth and seventh grades in Errington Elementary on Lulu Island.  Originally, she wrote the books in Swedish in Finland, where many people know both Swedish and Finnish.




Thea Alexander



Thea Alexander is another talented woman sci-fi writer.  Her writing is spiritual.  She writes like a man.  2150 A.D. is about a utopia in the future.  I like her ideas in the book.

Empowering Women

With slowing and plateauing population rates, empowering women is a strategy for compensation.  In the past, women were "wasted" essentially because they were not as educated as the men in their society.

Lessing's Shikasta

Woman Authors

Woman authors I like are Ursula K. Le Guin, Anne McCaffrey, and Doris Lessing, all of whom write sci-fi.  They write like men.

My English from Star Trek

My English

Foreigners think my English looks British.  It isn't really.  I've my own style.  I learnt American English in grade school in the Philippines, but later in Canada, I learnt Canadian English.  I've read many sci-fi and fantasy books, written by British authors, so those journeys affect my writing style.  Also, I've read many Esperanto, Spanish, and French books, as well as Japanese, so there are influences from those luxurious languages.

Sixists and Eightists

Sixists ponder about the paradox of learning and ignorance, and they believe the microcosm reflects the macrocosm, whilst Eightists rejoice in the art and architecture of their ornate places of worship.
