I enjoy reading William W. Johnstone who recently died. He is the writer of the famous Out of the Ashes series, the Westerns with Smoke Jensen, etc. I enjoyed writing him and he would answer when he felt like it. I also write his niece. Some of my other favorite writers include: Patricia Cornwell, Grace Livinston Hill, Max Lucado, the Left Behind series, Sean Hannity, etc.

You still have a month to join the Freeper Reading Club and read Robert Penn Warren's All The King's Men. SUPERB literature about a corrupt politician.

I find Grace Livingstone Hill to be very uneven. Some of her books are dramatic, effective, and hang together well. The Seventh Hour is very much a 1930's period piece but I like it. Others fall flat or don't seem to end in a coherent way, I think when she got outside her area of expertise, so to speak, she got overwhelmed. I'm thinking particularly of Blue Ruin, where she tried to have an anti-hero and he got away from her - so far as I could tell she was apparently horrified by the result and just ended the book as quickly as she could to get rid of him.
