Laura Mixon?

[gryphonsegg]

Has anyone else heard of Laura Mixon before? I've just started one of her books. I'm not very far along, but I'm enjoying it so far. She wrote a bunch of science fiction novels, at least one of which was well-regarded by the Big Names when it came out. I accidentally started with the sequel to that novel because I didn't know any better, having no knowledge of her until I noticed a couple of her books in the public library. On one hand, it's pretty cool that I now have another set of woman-authored SF books to read. On the other, I should have already been aware of this author and read at least some of her work before. Were these books on the shelves in stores for only one hour or something?
