What a wonderful piece of writing. This is a topic I have thought about often (and written a lot of poetry about that I hope contributes to the conversation in some way). I'm off to read your other posts. Lovely to find you this morning, thank you for such great writing
Thank you for saying that, Nelly! It is an endlessly fascinating topic, isn't it?! I will have to check out some of your poetry. Thank you for reading : )
Great essay! I loved hearing about those women that have used their experiences as a parent or homemaker to enrich their writing. I will have to check out Grace Paley’s work, it sounds fascinating.

Thank you for this, and for highlighting The Millstone, which is a wonderful novel about motherhood. Great film, as well!
Thanks, Sarah. Ooh, I haven't seen the film! I shall have to try to seek it out - thanks : )
