Dean Koontz has been a longstanding favorite for me (and I nearly crapped myself when I got ten books by him for Christmas). Mitch Albom is my favorite editorial writer, and I had no idea he wrote books until I got For One More Day from a friend. And I'm a sucker for Lemony Snicket... I'm reading the final book right now. Other authors include: George Orwell, Nathaniel Hawthorne (this, of course, is before I read The Scarlet Letter... blech), Thoreau, Emerson, Poe, Stephen King, Lao Tzi, and the fabulous people at the Bathroom Reader's Institute (haha).
Tolkien...(WoW! What a BIG surprise!!). Well that was a waste of 10 points... Oh well!
Ha, you'll never guess who mine is...
J. K. Rowling! I do love my nice fat Harry Potter books.
On the other, much less trodden path, I do like Mitchell, but she's not a favorite author, Gone with the Wind is a favorite book. Tamora Pierce is also good. And Orson Scott Card.
I love Diana Wynne Jones and William Nicholson, although they are horribly underrated.
Agatha Christie is amazing. And so is Shakespeare (duh!).
