Uh-oh. The first glitch.

Charbydis never posted the contest post for today. Whether it's because they hate me, or just didn't get my e-mail, I don't know(Don't worry about it Charbydis, no big deal). Either way, I'll post it here so that people who want today's entries can have them.

  3. I have a feeling this is going to get a bit redundant: Shakespeare, Jane Austen, and........Azar Nafisi.

  5. This is hard, because I hardly have favorite authors, only favorite books. But according to my favorite books, they'll probably be Shannon Hale, Jane Austen, and... Robin McKinley.

  6. Shannon Hale...

    uh...

    Shannon Hale?

    Seriously, beyond Shannon Hale I have no clue.

    Hmm...

    It's easier for me to name favorite books...

    I guess I'd have to say Tamora Pierce is up there. No, I don't think her books are all that remarkably well-written or anything, but I love them anyway and it was Trickster's Choice that made me realize that fantasy was like the coolest genre ever.

    And maybe like Maureen Johnson because she's so very funny? I mean, I've only read 13 Little Blue Envelopes and part of Suite Scarlett, but I read her blog a lot and she truly has one of the best third-person voices I've ever read. And her blog is just as funny.

    But there are so many more authors whose books I love...I guess I just think that there's more to picking a favorite author than just loving a book. There has to be something more, and that makes it really hard to pick favorite authors.

    I hope you don't mind that I posted. I'm usually more of a lurker myself, but this question was too fun not to answer. PS. I think it's funny how often Ms. Hale has been mentioned.

  22. We are so so so so so so incredibly sorry. Please do not punish us. Or hate us. Which would be punishment enough :(

    What happened was that we scheduled the post, but shortly afterwards, our wordpress account was inexplicably frozen. Nothing posted that had been scheduled, even though we were able to put up new things (you'll see that with the Stephenie Meyer post). I didn't even notice the scheduled post error until today. And at that point it was too late.

    Once again. Many apologies and we hope that we haven't ruined everything.
