Who is your favorite writer?

I love J.K. Rowling's imagination, and also Nicholas Sparks. But I like the romantic novels of Julie Garwood and Jude Deveraux. I love Pablo Peréz's "The Prophetic Worshiper", and Paulo Coehlo's "The Alchemist".. really inspiring and captivating. I usually prefer devotional books, romantic novels, fiction and suspense.

Hi I love to read and am always impatient to get the next book of favorite writers. Sara donati is good and also writes und the name Roselina Luppi.Diana Gabaldon is another fav,along with Susan Harrison,Jean Auel,Pat Conroy,Anne Siddens Rivers,Frank McCourt,Mave Binchy,Fanny Flagg R

I have only read 3 books completely through. They are the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares. She is a good writer and keeps me interested in her books. I'm almost done with the 3rd one and will be reading the 4th very soon. So after I'm done with the 4th book I'll have to find a new author until the next sisterhood book comes out.

My favorite author is Stephen King but I also like Dean Koontz,Peter David,James Patterson,Cathy Reichs,Ann McCaffrey,William Shatner(tekwar),Carolyn Keene,Robert McGammon.I love mysteries,history,Harry potter,but my favorite is science fiction,horror,and fantasy

I'm a big fan of Card, too, and also Robert Heinlein (the early stuff, before he paid off his mortgage) and Asimov. Always good to see another science fiction fan around! Have you ventured into fantasy at all? If you're interested, I'd suggest the Dragon Prince and Dragon Star trilogies by Melanie Rawn. The last book of the second trilogy is out of print, though, so you might have to really look for it!

I love Neil Gaiman books and graphic novels. I just think his work has no boundaries and lets you explore other aspects of the world. I like authors who are very creative so I like all the Lord of the rings books, and the Harry potter series. Paolo Coehlo isn't bad himself. He may be a bit religious sometimes but it's not tacky. So its pretty good.

I like the poet Mihai Eminescu (romanian)...but maybe nobody heard about it. Some poems tend to be more Sci Fi and mythological stories.

Mitch Albom, paulo coelho, and j.k. rowling. i love reading their books like the five people you meet in heaven (mitch albom) veronika decides to die (paulo coelho) and of course the famous harry potter series (j.k. rowling) i love reading and i'm fond of those very witty writers that write such quality books

Alex Haley. Roots.

My favorite writer is Sir Athur Conan Doyle who is a famous detective writer in 19 to 20 century. He was famous of his Sherlock Homes Series especially the long stories “The Hound of the Baskervilles.”

Garth Nix is my favorite writer. I've read everything he's written and some things so many times I practically know them by heart.

I enjoy J.California Cooper. Her works of fiction are so good that you can't help but laugh or feel sad for her people as well as learn a lesson from them. I also enjoy works from Tajuana TJ Butler, Gwynne Forster, Maya Angelou,Walter Mosley(esp Easy Rawlins books),Bebe Moore Campbell(she'll be sorely missed RIP),Sidney Sheldon(RIP),Mary Higgins Clark, Danielle Steel among others. I apologize to the SCI FI folks here. this is mostly African American fiction.

As of now it's Neil Gaiman! He's such a versatile writer...he never fails to surprise me with each of his books. I also love his Graphic novels. They're quite pricey but it's all worth buying!

One of my favourite writers is Thomas Hoving. He isn't a science fiction writer, but he writes about archaeology. He wrote a really excellent book called 'King of the Confessors'. He also wrote a book called 'Tutankhamen' which covered not only King Tut, but the dig done by Howard Carter. He really has a gift for bringing history to life and I find his subjects fascinating.

Mine is Sophie Kinsella, the author of "confessions of a shopaholic", i can relate with her writings. And i like her modern way of writing a book.
