I love to write mysteries, and Arthur Conan Doyle and agatha Christie are my favorite author s of mystery. My favorite book genre, although I can’t write it, is the epic saga, like the Lord of the rings. (Book!!)

I write picture books! My favorite author…wow, that’s so hard! I’d have to say Beatrix Potter, I believe! What amazing talent, both as a writer and illustrator!
Hi, Kristi! Thanks for sharing! Beatrix Potter is one of my favorite authors too. 🙂
As a teen, I loved reading YA (books along the lines mystery, thriller, suspense, adventure) and never grew out of it. So now as a YA writer, I write similar stories (thriller and adventure). Favorite authors are Jeri Massi, John Blaine, Dawn Watkins, Jerry Jenkins, Gloria Repp.
The things we read when we’re young have such a great influence on us when we’re older. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!
John Blaine who wrote the Rick Brant Science Adventure series? I loved those too!
