There are a few lesbian separatist writers that were popular back in the 70s-80s. I was fortunate to have been in college during that period.

Got into separatism pretty heavy until...The book by a collective named SAMOIS who published "Coming to Power" that caused a large rift between SM Leatherdykes and "mainstream" lesbian seps. Many Womyn's bookstores refusing to order any lesbian SM book titles. The two cities where I saw the largest engagement between the two factions were Albuquerque and Chicago.

Other separatist authors of note and worth reading are Sarah Lucia Hoagland, Mary Daly, and Whittig among others.
