As writers, we all have those particular authors who inspire us and teach us. We love their stories and read them again and again. Maybe they are the authors who first got us interested in writing our own stories. Maybe they were the authors who encouraged us that, “If they did it, so can I!” 🙂 We pick up every book we find by them, because we know we will learn something new or enjoy yet another fabulous tale.
I thought I would share a short list with you of some of my favorite authors. Personally, I tend to lean towards those authors who wrote the classics that we still know and love with a few modern authors and poets thrown in to keep it interesting!
- Laura Ingalls Wilder
- Beatrix Potter
- Charles Dickens
- Lynn Austin
- C.S Lewis
- Jane Austen
- J.R.R. Tolkien
- Robert Frost
- Elisabeth Elliot
- William Shakespeare
- Anne Bradstreet
- Louisa May Alcott
- Maud Hart Lovelace
- Liz Curtis Higgs
- Frances Hodges Burnett
How about you? Who are your favorite authors? I am always interested in trying someone new! You never know when you might discover a new favorite! 🙂
