This week’s profile, author Sarah McCarry, shares her picks for more badass ladies YOU should know!
Sarah says: “The brilliant and beautiful young women of Rookie ( rookiemag) give me hope for the future. My friends Cassandra Leveille and Lyric Hunter, likewise. The badass ladies you have featured here already. A non-representative sampling of writers I love: Sofia Samatar, Alice Sola Kim, Elizabeth Hand, Kelly Link, Carmen Machado, Lola Pellegrino, Mairead Case, Rahawa Haile, Imogen Binnie, Mimi Thi Nguyen. YOU, duh. I always forget everybody I love when I get asked this question! but I try to write about badass ladies who inspire me on my blog semi-regularly.”
