Write a list of 5 authors that describe your personality. W.E.B. Griffin, Frederick Forsythe, Zecharia Sitchin, Charles Fort and Graham Hancock... |
|
|
|
Hmmm... I've read some of Griffin's books. Good reads.
|
|
|
|
poe, anne rice, emily dickinson, pablo neruda and me.
|
|
|
|
King, Lovecraft, Poe, Dickins, Doyle
Along with a multitude of others spanning a number of genres. |
|
|
|
If I have to narrow it down to the top five, probably Uris, Tolstoy, Hugo, Rutherford and Michener.

John Irving
Richard Laymon Stephen King HP Lovecraft Douglas Adams |

I am not sure how an author can describe my personality. it seems an odd question...so I will rely on mood to answer. The overall mood in the writings.....(may or may not include my favorites)
Willa Cather- pioneering spirit, insight into human behavior, persistence (characteristics in he writing I feel I share) Mark Twain - a bit of rebelliousness, annoyance at foolishness, smokin' behind the barn at a young age, love of travel James Thurber - humor and the evident absurdness of all things made from human tradition Robert Frost - A love of the outdoors and a peaceful realization that we are....just who we are... Jack London - courage, love of the outdoors & adventure, sense of justice |

Both great writers what's your favorite london & twain? me - huck finn (hands down) & for london he has a collection of short stories that I like best the title To Build a Fire Maybe? I think some versions of call of the Wild also have many of these stories appended (as in Call of The Wild & Other Stories) I loved South Sea tales also, but enjoyed the ones from the Klondike the best |

Sylvia Plath Paul Coelho Richard Bach Dr. Seuss... I can't think of a 5th one Dr Seuss is actually an awesome choice - shows humor, imagination and a good moral for each story A 5th one? How about Richard Scarry or the guy who wrote the Curious George books? |

I've never read anything by Richard Scarry, and I only know of the Curious George cartoons on tv, but I'll make a note to look them up next time I'm at the library. |

I think some versions of call of the Wild also have many of these stories appended (as in Call of The Wild & Other Stories) I loved South Sea tales also, but enjoyed the ones from the Klondike the best Hmmmmmm THAT is a really hard choice because i love mark twains Classics like Tom Sawyer And Huck finn "The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them." MARK TWAIN {Samuel Langhorn Clemens} November 30, 1835 - April 21, 1910 "Death is the starlit strip between the companionship of yesterday and the reunion of tomorrow." http://www.online-literature.com/twain/ But i was really engulfed with Jack London for his far north stories and many other writings Jack London (John Griffith) (1876-1916) "The stone that the builders refused" http://www.jacklondon.com/literature.htm Care to read some ? |

I've read Les Miserables and Hawaii, Sayonara, The Tell and Cetennial all twice |
