Christie Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Which author would want to marry? Age doesn't really matter! But I'm going for Derek Landy the author of Skulduggery! He's funny, witty and what's saying? 'Laughter is the best medicine!' So who would you live the rest of your life with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlette Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Terry Pratchett. He's pictured wearing a very nice hat inside the cover of some of the Discworld novels - and a good hat makes a good man . Also, he's very funny in a very sarcastic way and that's something my wicked sense of humour can appreciate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Dana Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I'm grabbing Ken Follett before anyone else gets him, with Lee Child as a backup in case Ken puts up too much of a fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Neil Gaiman! He has quite a dry sense of humour which suits me just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talisman Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Jeizus, none. Too much like waking up next to a mirror every morning. Don't we do that anyway though - it's what (to me at least) relationships are all about ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peacefield Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Hmmm, I think I'm allowed to call someone who writes song lyrics an author, right? If so, I would say John Frusciante and/or Chris Cornell. The 'and' comes in if it's still legal in the state of Utah!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronwen Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Wahahah. I don't actually know what most authors look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzanna Addison Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Hmm if we can go for ANY author alive or dead ... Well ... Charles Dickens followed by C S Lewis then failing either of those ... Dean Koontz. The last one would have to get rid of his golden retrievers though ... not a big fan of dogs higher than my knees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicnic Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Although technically he's a journalist, I would choose Charlie Brooker. He's a Guardian columnist who writes on TV, has written books and presents screenwipe. He's so intelligent, satirical and funny. And he needs cheering up cos he seems like a right grumpy-pants at times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Stephen King, so I could ask him, 'why, why???? a library policeman????', then promptly divorce him, and with my solid pre~nup, will successfully lead to me having the rights to 'Salem's Lot', yes I did put a lot of thought into this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ii Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 I like Chrissy's strategy. *cracks up* I wouldn't kick Hugh out of my bed, for sure. No one. I don't really see myself marrying anyone. I'd happily have an affair with a few, thought. *laughs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusky Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Neil Gaiman! He has quite a dry sense of humour which suits me just fine. Plus, he has the most awesome hair! ^^ (He's very good-looking too) Terry Pratchett. He's pictured wearing a very nice hat inside the cover of some of the Discworld novels - and a good hat makes a good man . Also, he's very funny in a very sarcastic way and that's something my wicked sense of humour can appreciate. I have seen The Hat in person! And it's just as...hatty...as in the pictures Although it was balanced on a bottle of whiskey when I saw it. I think I'd marry... well, I'd have to agree with you, Nicola!

Scarlette Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Neil Gaiman is very good looking - I Googled . I always pictured him as rather old and eccentric, but he's just moderately old and handsomely eccentric. Oh, that sentence worked better in my head.
