Post 11- Women Writers

I think women writers are so infuential. I love women writers like Maya Angelou. She wrote many poems. Her peoms gives inspiration to women mainly black women. Phenomenal Woman is my favorite poem, I love the part of the poem that reads "The span of my hips, the stride of my step, the curl of my lips, I'm a woman, Phenomenally". That gives me courge as a woman to be proud of being a woman and hold my head up high and embrace being a woman. I also enjoy other writers such as Alice Walker, she wrote the book " The Color Purple" which later turned into a movies. I also enjoy reading books written by Terry McMillian, "Waiting to Exhale" and "How Stella got her groove back". How Stella got her groove back was about a divorce woman looking for love took a trip with her friend and found a young man that made her feel beautiful and loved. In reading some of these stories you put yourself in the main characters shoes or you can relate to certain plots in the stories. Women are emotional individual, therefore reading a book written by a woman you might just feel the emotions in the book.
