Author, Author!
This meme is going around my f-list and I can't resist.
The Rules: Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen authors (poets included) who've influenced you and that will always stick with you. List the first 15 you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.
1. Jane Austen
2. Ursula K. LeGuin
3. Margaret Atwood
4. Kathryn Schultz
5. Billy Collins
6. Isabel Allende
7. Steven Brust
8. Robin McKinley
9. Madeleine L'Engle
10. Oliver Sacks
11. Orson Scott Card
12. William Shakespeare
13. Marion Zimmer Bradley
14. J.R.R. Tolkien
15. John Crowley
The odd thing is that I remember doing this with just ten, but I can't find the entry. Ah, well--it would have been interesting to see how my picks have changed.
