His book The Know-It-All was one of the first books I read fresh out of college and it re-kindled my former love of reading. Joe McKinney and Mira Grant write some great zombie books. I’d put myself somewhere in my top ten, but not sure where. I definitely enjoy reading my own writing and hope to some day make enough money from it to no longer need a proper day job.Fri, 02 Dec 2022 16:56:09 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=297660https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=297660Carlos Ruiz ZafónSun, 28 Aug 2022 02:39:43 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=268373https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=268373Shirley Jackson for sure.

It's nice to meet you :-) Feel free to check out my stuff https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/57572965-strawberry-milk  Happy writing! Sat, 13 Nov 2021 21:39:11 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=78263https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=78263Taylor Jenkins Reid. I first read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and was so captivated by the way she wrote the story. I am currently making my way through her older books and she is incredible.Sat, 13 Nov 2021 04:08:38 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=74183https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=74183JRR Tolkien, George RR Martin, Anne Rice, Per Anders Fogelström, Astrid Lindgren, Maria GripeFri, 12 Nov 2021 18:31:38 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=72237https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=72237Richelle Mead Richard Paul Evans Chuck Palahniuk John DouglasFri, 12 Nov 2021 13:48:14 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11874https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11874Robin Parrish is a favorite of mine, as is early Ted Dekker. Same goes for the first 4 or 5 novels by Michael Chabon. Other favorites include Keigo Higashino, Marie Lu, Langston Hughes, Tolkien, Rowling (the writer, not the person), Adalyn Grace, Jared Reck, Angie Thomas,  S. K. Perry, Jasper Fforde, and I've recently come to know about authors like Nina George, Liane Moriarty, Jodi Picoult, and P...Fri, 19 Feb 2021 17:26:53 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11006https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=11006I love C.S. Lewis' ability to create worlds (Especially Narnia).  To me, writing stories for children is such a kind and honest occupation and I am currently sitting on a tiny book myself that I wrote last year.  I also love Hemingway, and Agua Viva by Lispector. Tue, 16 Feb 2021 01:24:16 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8588https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8588Oof, I have wayyyy too many, but I'll give you a few that come to mind immediately. Richelle Mead, P.C. Cast, Jodi Picoult, C. C. Hunter, Tracy Wolff, Lauren Kate, and if I think of anymore, I'll add to this comment. Tue, 09 Feb 2021 05:56:33 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8564https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=8564I read a lot of contemporary sweet romance, and I love supporting Indie Authors - and as I read on subscription with Kindle Unlimited I pretty much only find authors there ^^"  My current faves are: Darlene Byers "Sapphire Ridge Prospects" - a new author with a very unique and earthy Australian voice. Michelle Pennington - particularly her new romcom series starting with "Oh Keep Your Shirt On" Ta...Tue, 09 Feb 2021 03:16:15 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=7655https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=7655Many of my favorite writers come from the world of comics. I've really liked Kieran Gillan, Adrian Tomine, and Craig Thompson. I would also like to read more from Jeff Lemiere. For prose, I have been reading a lot of Haruki Murakami and Miranda July. I am reading a collection of short stories by Joshua Ferris right now, though. Fri, 05 Feb 2021 01:13:16 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=4999https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=4999A few of mine are George Orwell, Stephen King, and Neil Gaiman for sure. Tue, 19 Jan 2021 16:14:16 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2930https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2930I would say I was my favorite author but I never go back to read my own books. I would say Stephen King and an upcoming author named JD Toombs. I got an early look at his first novel.Sat, 09 Jan 2021 15:09:38 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2317https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2317Holly Black. John Green. Neil Gaiman. Hank Green. JK Rowling (still enjoy her work, even if I don't like her as much as a person). Patricia Briggs.Thu, 07 Jan 2021 04:36:43 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2215https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2215I don't think it's shitty to say yourself. I think that is actually wonderful. I wish I had that much confidence in my own writing. What genre do you write?Wed, 06 Jan 2021 21:01:05 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2213https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=2213Would it be shitty to say myself? Lol  If I can't choose myself I would say George R.R. Martin.Wed, 06 Jan 2021 20:59:08 +0000
