Of course Tolkien is on my list, along with Tom Clancy, Tim LaHaye, Jerry B. Jenkins, JK Rowling and Stephen King. I have some more, but those are more of my favourites.

*cough* CoolClaw...

Probably because she hasn't written very many books yet.

*coughs again* ...and that's still not a complete sentence, but let's not go there...

WHY exactly was George Lucas put on there? HE'S A FILM DIRECTOR, NOT AN AUTHOR!!!
I swear, kids, if you guys can't tell the difference between a movie and a book, I give up.

*grin*
My favorite authors:
- JK Rowling
- Nan Ryan
- Sylvia Plath
- Anne Sexton
- JRR Tolkein
- Mercedes Lackey
- Morgan Llywellyn
- Anne McCafferey
- JD Salinger
- Billy Collins

(Okay, okay, so three of those are technically poets... Plath did write a novel, Sexton wrote short stories, and Collins' poems are really quite long... BAH!)

Lemony Snicket is my favorite writer, he has a great style of writing you don't even have to read who its by to tell if its's a Lemony Snicket book. They are very fun to read. His sieries or however you spell that word, Sierie or however you spell that word of unfortunate events is a awesome seiries or however you spell that word.

I'm in the middle of the 5th book.

I bought Triss, Harry Potter and the Order of The Phoenix and The Hobbit on June 21st. I read Triss, finished Harry Potter just last night(a few days it took me to read it, 4 or 5) and have begun The Hobbit. People are amazed at my fast reading.

Sonoras · July 08, 2003, 06:47:17 PM

Wow,very impressive!I got Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix the day it came out and I am still not done with it.(Mainly because It's Summer vacation so I don't read as much.)

Almkman · July 08, 2003, 07:56:54 PM

I'm the fastest reader in my grade.I don't even compare to some of the people here.

Bravehart · July 08, 2003, 08:30:15 PM

I don't believe this, 3 pages and not one person even mentions T.H. White? That's a criminal offense! Okay, fave authors: T.H. White; J.R.R. Tolkien; T.A. Barron; Brian Jacques; Timothy Zahn; etc. etc. I love so many books, hard to decide who's the best author. (Note: Those listed are in no particular order.)

In the fast-reader contest, I read the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy all in 8 days. The Hobbit in 1, FotR in 3, Two Towers in 2, RotK in 2. ;) How's that for fast?

Aqualis · July 09, 2003, 10:54:36 AM

I think I'll should add L. Ron Hubbard to my list of favorite authors (that was in this topic ... right?).

I read fast, I don't know how fast.

I agree with you Teufel.

But Julie winning... ~nod wisely~ She's whom we call Others.

Brock · July 13, 2003, 03:40:43 PM

My favorite author... other than Brian Jacques, Tolkien, and JK Rowling, is my brother... seriously... he's a great writer. Go here to read some of his stories.

calria · July 13, 2003, 03:54:49 PM

*wonders why J. K. Rowling wasn't listed*

Also, why is it that more girls than guys over a certain age like Harry Potter? I just finished book 5 yesterday, so I'm rather HP-ish.
