It isn’t only the more southerly parts of the Americas where you can find women who write in languages other than English. Today’s Women in Translation Month post features Élisabeth Vonarburg, who lives in Quebec. She has a number of works available in English translation, which you can find via her English-language website. Élisabeth is also a skilled translator of English works into French. In particular she produces the French-language editions of works by Guy Gavriel Kay. I know that Guy is a huge admirer of her work, and that should be all of the recommendation that you need.
