I’ll wrap up with an author whom I had the pleasure to meet once already, back in 2014 when Written in My Own Heart’s Blood was released - but I’d love to see her again (and again and again):ġ0: Diana Gabaldon: Author extraordinaire of the Outlander series! Dana Stabenow: I love the Kate Shugak series, and really enjoy reading this author’s blog posts on writing, general topics, and life in Alaska! She’s another author I’d like to hear talk about inspiration, medical research, and the conditions she clearly cares so much about.ĩ. Lisa Genova: Her books tackles such fascinating medical conditions. I’d love to hear her speak and learn more about her writing and research process.Ĩ. Lisa See: I was fascinated by The Teagirl of Hummingbird Lane, and have enjoyed many of her books over the years. Jojo Moyes: Her books always move and inspire me.ħ. Jim Butcher: I’m a big Dresden fan, and loved Codex Alera and The Aeronaut’s Windlass too.Ħ. Amy Stewart: The Kopp Sisters rule! Her historical fiction is so much fun, and so full of terrific female characters straight out of history.ĥ. Katherine Arden: I adored The Bear and the Nightingale and The Girl in the Tower, and can’t wait for the trilogy wrap-up in 2019.Ĥ. John Scalzi: Love, love, love his writing, and definitely need to read more.ģ.

Sadly, I ended up out of town for a weekend in September when she was doing a signing event at a local bookstore, but since she’s incredibly prolific (I suspect she doesn’t sleep), I’m hoping it won’t be a long wait until there’s another book launch event to attend.Ģ. Seanan McGuire: I’ve loved her books for quite a while, but this year I totally binged on the October Daye and InCryptids series, as well as the Newsflesh books by her alter ego Mira Grant. I could probably go on and on with this topic, but here are the top 10 on my mind right now, starting with favorite authors whom I’ve never seen in person:ġ. This week’s topic is Authors I’d Love to Meet. Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, featuring a different top 10 theme each week.
