List the names of the 25 writers who have influenced you in the "Write Note" box, then post and tag your friends. Author Raymond Benson started this meme -- so tag him, too, when you tag your 25 friends who appreciate fiction and poetry or other writing. My list, of novelists and screenwriters, in no particular order is:
1. J.R.R. Tolkien
2. Arthur C. Clarke
3. Connie Willis
4. Greg Bear
5. Charles de Lint
6. Anne McCaffrey
7. Robert Arthur
8. Patrick O'Brian
9. Joe R. Lansdale

20. Denny O'Neil
21. Mike Grell
22. Lois McMaster Bujold
23. Lillian Stewart Carl
24. Steven Gould
25. Lester Del Rey
