Author List

Rosaleen · Subject: Author List Mon Jul 02, 2007 8:20 pm

I'm taking a break from the story I'm writing (that's why I haven't been on here in so long) and doing my librarian duties again. I was looking on one of the threads, and you guys were talking about book recommendations and such, so I'm adding threads for favorite authors (author recommendations, basically, which is this thread) and book recommendations. I'll probably have categorized threads by genre (which I think someone mentioned) so I'm going to gather up all the books from the thread you were talking about them on, and stick them in the appropriate genres. If you posted a book that I don't know the genre of, then I'll PM you about it. I'm not going to categorize the authors, though, so there will be just one big list on here, unless someone wants otherwise. I'd be happy to categorize them if people want me to. So, PM authors to me or post them, and discuss away!
See ya,
Rosy
