Welcome to our Women in SFF Feature – 2022!

That’s right, we’re bringing back Women in SFF for the third year! Last year was another huge success – we love the response we get from the community so we’re excited to bring you another month of fantastic content!

Women in SFF is an opportunity to celebrate female writers of fantasy, sci-fi, and everything in between, as well as all our favourite characters in those genres also.

This year, the team have had their planning hats on, and we have a whole host of content lined up for you.

We would absolutely love you all to take part; from reviews, recommendation lists, articles – however you decide to join in, let us know by using #WomenInSFF and/or tagging @TheFantasyHive

What’s coming up this month?

Blogger Tags

This year, we’d love to get other blogs involved in Women in SFF, so we’ve devised some posts you can join in with!

Each Monday, we’ll be kicking off a different, here a little info about each one:

#TagTeam: Started by Bkfrgr and Ariana of The Book Nook for Wyrd and Wonder, this is a theme/trope association game. Check back on Monday for our starter book, we’re looking forward to seeing how far this chain will get!

#TheBookWouldBeBetter: There have been some fantastic adaptations over the years, but which from a female author would you love to see, and who would you cast?

#TheBand: Yes! We’re getting the band back together! The mercenary one, to deal with that Dark Lady causing havoc… We need your character recommendations!

#Readle: Anyone else got hooked on the Wordle craze? We’re still on it, and Framed, and Heardle… so we’ve come up with Readle! We’ll be giving you some clues to some favourite reads for you to solve – and we can’t wait to see puzzles you come up with of your own!
