Mark Chadbourn
Robin Hobb

For some reason, narrowing it down to just five is actually stupidly difficult. You'd think it would be easy to pick out favourites...

The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry. -Ernest Hemingway

Stephenie Meyer.
No, I'm just kidding...I actually don't really have any favourite authors since I tend to read one book by an author and then move on. But I have read quite a few books by Julie Anne Peters, so I guess that counts. And also JK Rowling of Course.
And a lot of fanfiction writers whose pen names I can never keep track of. The only one who comes to mind is CP Coulter who writes the Glee fanfiction Dalton (which every Glee/Klaine fan should read right now by the way)
