- "Dear Literary Ladies is one component of a series of interrelated, multidisciplinary works. This artist's book is a companion to the blog of the same name both of which fancifully pose questions on writing and the writing life, with the answer derived from a classic author's own words. The narratives in this limited edition book are gathered from the letters, journals, and autobiographies of fourteen authors including Jane Austen, Charlotte Brontë, George Sand, Willa Cather, Louisa May Alcott, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Edith Wharton, and others [Sarah Orne Jewett, Colette, L. M. Montgomery, Virginia Woolf, Edna Ferber, Zora Neale Hurston, and Anaïs Nin]. Reaching back to answer contemporary questions with voices from literary history reflects the timeless concerns of writers, with a particular emphasis on these issues from a female perspective."--Artist's statement on publisher's website.
