Boyfriend brought home some kind of low-level disease from work, which means that we've both spent the last few days draped over various bits of furniture aching, drowsing, and grousing at each other. This is not really conducive to writing blog entries, I find. So, instead of anything with, you know, real merit, I thought I'd produce my Anything By list.
Basically, this is a list of authors. And I will read Anything By said authors. I will go to used bookstores and search out their older works, I will actually cave in and buy their work in hardback, I will reread their works endlessly, and I can tell you right now that there must be at least three authors I left off the list because, well, my brain is squeeze-cheese right now.
Please note that the list only contains authors of normal-type books; there are a fair number of comic-strip and comic-book authors who technically fit the requirements, but, well, I'm lazy. Plus the squeeze-cheese thing.
Mooncalf's Anything By List:
Stephen King
Peter Straub

Salman Rushdie
Tom Robbins

Guy Gavriel Kay
Dave Barry

As always, Moo, you inspire. Nezumi is now completing his own personal Anything By list to put up in his journal (http://www.livejournal.com/~nezchan/).
It's amazing how many authors you've reminded Nezumi of. The past few years have been pretty dry for reading due to various issues involving his ex, and he's only now getting back to them. Thanks for the reminder of how much great stuff there is out there.

You'd get along well with my co-workers at work, Moon. ^_'
