I've only just *discovered* Ms. Valente because I've been going through the Hugo short fiction shortlist. Her Novella Silently and Very Fast was my favorite of the six under consideration. And just because of that I'm now reading The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making, which is a fun little read.

And I agree, the list is missing a lot of very good female authors.
