Ok. I've finally decided on my answers for this. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 12/01/2012 08:46:55 PM
Who is your favourite sci-fi writer? Why?

Anne McCaffrey. She's hardly sci-fi at all, but she's about as much as I can cope with. I love her stories, I love her writing style, and I love the nostalgia I feel when I reread them.

Who is your favourite fantasy writer? Why?

Tougher, but I suspect Janny Wurts is the answer here. I like her breadth of characters, and the fact that the words she uses show her love for language. And I like that she puts so much of her own self into the books.

Who is your favourite author overall? Why?

Georgette Heyer. Because I can reread her books over and over again and they never feel old. They are my happy-making books.

I thought the beauty of the question is that it asked for ONE author to each question. *NM* Aeryn - 06/01/2012 09:48:37 PM 388 Views
Well, I did give one author to the question I could answer. I just added a bunch of others after. :p *NM* Nate - 06/01/2012 10:03:59 PM 371 Views

I suck at choosing absolute favourites, I like far too much stuff for that, but okay... Legolas - 06/01/2012 11:38:30 PM 834 Views
You should read more scfi Ray - 07/01/2012 12:08:21 AM 745 Views

The questions get easier as I go from top to bottom for me. Tom - 07/01/2012 12:31:24 AM 812 Views
You and I actually agree on something?! rebelaessedai - 07/01/2012 01:09:37 AM 809 Views
I think you mean to be surprised that we agree about something book-related. Tom - 07/01/2012 01:20:25 AM 826 Views
Well, yes, but you are a Republican, aren't you? rebelaessedai - 07/01/2012 01:40:31 AM 961 Views
