Cool. Thanks. Knowing Teeowynn personally, I keep forgetting that her name is kinda ambiguous. :)
Also thanks for compiling that list in the first place. There are so many misconceptions about RPGs being "a guy thing" that many talented women get forgotten when the subject comes up. I appreciate your post about those oft-ignored authors.
A few notes I'd like to add to your list:
* Nicky Rea and Jackie Cassada were also line-editors for Ravenloft, designers and line-editors for Changeling, and contributing authors to D&D, Mage, Werewolf, and many other lines.
* Kathleen Ryan was also a core design contributor for Mage 1st and 2nd editions, and was the graphic designer for Mage during its classic run. She's also the author of a half-dozen WoD novels. Her work on Mage 2nd Edition and the Mage Tarot won two GAMA awards and an RPGA award.
* Nichole Landroos and Lisa Stevens were also founding members of White Wolf Game Studio, where both contributed design work to the original Vampire: The Masquerade.
* Jennifer Hartshorn was not a "contributing author" to Wraith - she was its original co-designer and line-editor. She also contributed design work to Changeling, managed Dark Ages, and headed Vampire: The Masquerade in between Andrew Greenberg and Rob Hatch. In addition, she wrote and edited for Fading Suns and Mage while founding two live-action game studios, Chimerea Interactive and White Hart Interactive.
* Other folks I would add:
- J. Porter Wiseman (design contributor for Euthanatos and Mage: The Sorcerers Crusade)
- Jessica Hammer (co-author on the Deliria book Everyday Heroes, and a regular contributor to Game Chef.
- Nancy Collins (White Wolf fiction author)
- Storm Constantine (designer, publisher and author of the Wraethuthu RPG; also a contributing author to Warhammer and Mage: The Sorcerers Crusade)
- Lindsay Woodcock (editor, designer and contributing author on Mage, Abberant, Kindred of the East, Vampire: The Dark Ages, Fading Suns and Deliria)
