Friday Finds

I'm really feeling The Staves at the moment, so here, have a (very lovely) music video. On that note too, Portable TV has an awesome list of 5 female vocalists you should be listening to (if you're not already).

- The photography of Amanda Jasnowski is doing things to me. Really, really beautiful stuff. Hana Haley's is also pretty wonderful.

- Writer Ian Sales has compiled a list of 100 Great Science Fiction Stories Written By Women, which is pretty aces. Check out the list here.

- Geekquality is basically my new favourite blog. They have an awesome post on YA fiction. And another on third wave feminism and the hard femme.

- Ryan O'Neill wrote a great post over on his blog about submitting short stories and contextualising rejections (because they suck, they do, but they're not without their uses).

- The Atlantic did a great article too on various writers' favourite first lines.

- 500 new fairytales discovered in Germany!
