WHO ARE THE BRAZEN HUSSIES???<\/p>\n

Three AMAZING award-winning writers of fantasy and science fiction: Lisa Goldstein<\/a>, Michaela Roessner<\/a> & Pat Murphy<\/a>. In an effort to acquaint more readers with their work, they’ve overcome their natural tendency to be modest by promoting their work shamelessly, like the brazen hussies they truly want to be. In addition, the Brazen Hussies want to let people know that today’s science fiction and fantasy isn’t just for kids, spreading the word that sophisticated, subtle, fascinating, compelling, and topical literature for adults is being published as science fiction. Speculative fiction (aka SF, science fiction, fantasy, and sci-fi, and “what the heck is that you are reading?”) is more than just elves and dwarves, robots and space ships – so much more. If you read science fiction and fantasy when you were a kid, come back and revisit the amazing worlds you used to love. And good news…there are many more of them now.<\/p>\n
