To Ten Tuesday: Authors I’d Love to Meet


Happy Tuesday everyone!  Welcome to the Top Ten Tuesday now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.  This week's topic is Authors I’d Love to Meet.  This was a difficult one to narrow down, but I decided to focus on classic authors that I wish I could have had the opportunity to meet if they were all still alive.


Charlotte Bronte


Lord Byron


Lewis Carroll


Arthur Conan Doyle


Daphne du Maurier


Edgar Allan Poe


Mary Shelley


Bram Stoker


J.R.R. Tolkien


Oscar Wilde


What authors would you like to meet, living or dead?  As always, thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!

  1. I like how you went with classics! Tolkien for sure, and Lord Byron. Wow, good choice. I would think Daphne du Maurier would be amazing too.

  2. Such a fun twist, Lauren. I don't read classic lit (though someday I should give it another chance), but I do admire so many of the stories these authors wrote (and as BBC productions they're gorgeous).

    1. There are some that I really appreciate for sure - and some of those adaptations are great.

  3. I would totally want to meet the Brontes and Tolkien, but most of all, how cool would it be to meet Shelley on that trip where Frankenstein came into being. Really fun list!

  5. I would love to meet Tolkien and Wilde as well. (Even if my love for Wilde was inspired by Morrissey.)

  7. This was a cool twist on the topic😁 Out of this group I think I'd like to meet Mary Shelley the most, she was such a pioneer!

  8. I had a momentary mental image of them all in a room together and not going to lie... it was a little bit terrifying.

  16. Ooh I like that you went with the classics! It's so hard to imagine what they would actually be like, but that makes me all the more curious

  17. I never thought of doing authors that are no longer with us! Great list. I agree with them completely!

    ReplyDelete
  18. I love that you selected classic authors! I realized at the end of my post all the authors I selected are still alive; I definitely should do a second post with authors who are no longer with us. Other that the majority of your list, I'd love to sit with Jane Austen and e.e. cummings.
