Today's topic: LibraryThing authors. Who are your LibraryThing authors? What books of theirs do you have? Do you ever comment on an author's LT page? Have you received any comments from an author on your LT account?I'm a piker here. My only LT authors are Susan Wittig Albert (susanalbert), Monk Ashland (Rettstatt), Shannon Okey (knitgrrldotcom). I have almost all of Albert's books (the ones written under her own name): her China Bayles and her Beatrix Potter mysteries. I might be missing the most recent of the latter, it's on my TBR/TBP/TBmooched list. Ashland only has a single book right now, The Sky Village, but my daughters both found it entrancing and are eagerly awaiting sequels. Okey is a knitting, not a fiction, writer; I have her book Spin to Knit and enjoy it quite a lot. It gave me a lot of support when I was new to the idea of spinning my own yarn for eventual knitting.
I haven't ever gotten or shared comments with any of "my" LT authors, but a few weeks ago I did win an autographed copy of a book from another blog (hi, Fyrefly!), and the author J. Scott Savage did comment here. I still haven't received the book, though (insert frowny face from someone eager for new sci-fi to read...make that devour).
I have to say when I first saw this question my gut reaction was that I was going to have a one sentence answer...but once I started thinking about it, I seem to have had a lot to say. Maybe it's a good thing more of my authors aren't on LT (no, it's not).
