At the moment, she's writing about Tiptree.  Go read it.<\/p>\n<p>I mention Eleanor here every now and then, but she's still not as well-known as she deserves to be, so I figure it can't hurt to mention again that she's one of my favorite authors.  That's only partly because \"<a href=\"http:\/\/www.strangehorizons.com\/2004\/20040329\/grammarian.shtml\">The Grammarian's Five Daughters<\/a>\" is one of my favorite stories in all the world; it's also because the rest of her work is (as Le&nbsp;Guin wrote about Eleanor's novel <cite>Ring of Swords<\/cite>) \"intellectually, emotionally, and ethically complex and powerful.\"  I would add (as I put it a while back) \"sane and wise and rich and moving.\"  I particularly love her <span class=\"foreign\">Hwarhath<\/span> stories and novel, but the rest of her work is good too.  She won the very first Tiptree award for her novel <cite>A Woman of the Iron People<\/cite>.<\/p>\n<p>(And in case you Swarthmore folks need more incentive to read her stuff, she's a Swarthmore alum.  Maybe SWIL should consider bringing her as a speaker someday?)<\/p>\n<p>If you want to know more about her, you could look at our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.strangehorizons.com\/2004\/20040329\/\">author focus issue<\/a> from March 2004.
