women writers
Ladies who publish
Writers who are women, considered as a category.
The phrase acknowledges that literary history long marginalized female authors or confined them to certain genres.
Some writers reject the label as reductive—preferring simply "writer"—while others embrace it to highlight women's contributions and distinct perspectives.
The anthology focused on women writers of the Harlem Renaissance.
