Sarah Jackson on Nostr: I find it especially irritating when the topic is 19th and early 20thC ghost stories ...
I find it especially irritating when the topic is 19th and early 20thC ghost stories and we only get MR James et al when SO many of those stories (most of those stories?) were written by women. Shirley Jackson gets a mention sometimes, but not E Nesbit, Elizabeth Bowen, Edith Wharton, Amelia B Edwards, Charlotte Riddell, Margery Lawrence, May Sinclair, Mary Wilkins Freeman, Richmal Crompton, Marjorie Bowen, Eleanor Scott...
