Stolen from Cherise. :)

The Rules: Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen authors (poets, songwriters and screenwriters included) who've influenced you and that will always stick with you. List the first fifteen you can recall in no more than fifteen minutes. Tag at least fifteen friends (optional), including me, because I'm interested in seeing what authors my friends choose. (To do this, go to your Notes tab on your profile page, paste rules in a new note, cast your fifteen picks, and tag people in the note.)


1. J.K. Rowling.



2. Tamora Pierce.



3. Nancy Farmer (The Sea of Trolls!!)



4. Libba Bray.



5. Bram Stoker.



6. Taylor Swift. (Yes. She's an amazing songwriter.)



7. A Fine Frenzy (songwriter...I believe her name is Alison Sudol?)


8. Meredith Ann Pierce. (The Darkangel trilogy!!!)



9. Michael Grant. Michael Grant. Michael Grant. (Gone books--AMAZING!)



10. Gregory Maguire. (Especially Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister.)



11. Nicholas Sparks.



12. Charles Dickens.



13. St. Josemaria Escriva.


14. Anne Frank.



15. Emily Bronte.

*is please that Mariella thought this fun enough to steal*

You know what's strange? Out of all the authors you listen here, I've only read one! And there's a bunch of them on this list that I haven't even heard of. At least, I find it strange. Of course, you have read a lot more YA than I have. *ponders*

Trailer for The Wishing Well

(The trailer still has the title Autumn of Secrets, but that's the only thing that changed--the plot is the same!)


Thanks to Nickname for making this trailer!
