Feature Follow Friday: Favourite Author


Feature Follow Friday is a blog hop hosted by Parajunkee Alison Can Read. It's a way for bloggers and readers alike to make some new friends and gain some new followers as well. The point of this hop is to follow other bloggers. I follow you, you follow me.

Also, this week's featured blogger is Read Write All The Time, so make sure you check it out too.

While I do prefer GFC and/or Bloglovin follows, if you would like to follow me via email/twitter etc, that's great too! Also, please leave a comment so I can follow you back!


Question of the Week

What living author or authors would you like to have dinner with? (Try to think beyond JK Rowling)
I haven't met many authors at all. A) I have simply never had the time to go. And B) I live in Australia where not many international authors come and visit. But it's definitely something I would like to do once I have more time, freedom and resources available to me. The only authors I have ever met are Isabelle Carmody  (author of the Obernewtyn series) and Li Cunxin (author of Mao's Last Dancer), years ago when they visited my high school.

But if I'm lucky enough to be able to have dinner with an author, the first two names that come to mind are Stephen King and Ian McEwan. They seem to have so many pearls to wisdom regarding reading, writing and just life in general.

  2. I have heard of Stephen King, but never read any of his books before. But based on everyone else's comments about him, I am sure he would be a great author to have dinner with! : )
