“illusions” by Richard Bach is one of my favorites.

There’s a Cat on my Head.

No, not really. I think it’s funny that it exists, though.

My favorite book is The Silent World by Jacques-Yves Cousteau.

I can’t name a favorite book, I love too many.
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, by Robert A Heinlein was a great book.
Stranger in a Strange Land, same author, is one book I would identify as a favorite. In fact I’m going to go start reading it again even though I just finished it recently. Highly highly recommend it.
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett is one of the funniest books I’ve ever written and I can only hope for more collaboration of the two in the future.

My favorite book is Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk and a close second and third are Songs of Solomon by Toni Morrison and The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver. I love poetry but my favorite poems are by Alice Walker.

Let America Be America Again by Langston Hughes makes me proud to be an American.

My favorite book is still Sabriel by Garth Nix.

I’ve always loved, “The Road Not Taken.” It hit a nerve the first time I read it, and has every time since.
