Top 10 Authors
Published November 17, 2002
In an effort to pigeonhole me, Mr. Olsen has asked me (ME!) to tell you what my favorite this's and that's are. Well, he picked the wrong month for that, as I am wasting every spare moment bouncing between NaNoWriMo and Thanksgiving Day preparations.
However, I am nothing if not cooperative, so rather than spend my energy doing exhaustive research, I am presenting some off-the-cuff lists. Actually, come to think of it, these might be more insightful than if I spent hours and hours researching what my tastes are supposed to look like--fiddling with things like "Do I put Asimov at number 2 or 3?" and "How many Beatle albums can I fill up the Top 10 with anyway?" At least, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
Hell, I'm not even gonna give you reasons WHY I like who I like. So there!
