Editor's Note:
Ang tinig ng makatang babae sa kontemporaryong panahon ay “tinig” ng katawan at kaluluwang matagal nang ikinulong sa loob ng garapon, ngunit ngayo’y nakapailanglang na, dahil kinilala na rin ang larangan ng personal bilang larang na politikal, dahil kinilala na rin ang ambag ng mga may-, kasam-, sa bahay, upang maakda ang talam- at akdang buhay. Hindi na mga multo sa panitikan sa Pilipinas ang mga babaeng makata—nanuot na sa kamalayan ang mga akda nina Benilda Santos, Lilia Quindoza Santiago, Marra PL. Lanot, Aida Santos, Merlie Alunan, Lina Sagaral Reyes, Rebecca Añonuevo, Merlinda Bobis, Maningning Miclat, Rowena Festin, at marami pang iba.— Luna Sicat Cleto Mula sa Paunang Salita
