“Of course, there are hundreds of novels and authors that have influenced me. But to choose three, they are: Stephen King/The Stand (and really most of his books); Anne Rice/The Witching Hour; and Pat Conroy/The Prince of Tides. These authors write my favorite kind of book - epic feel, gorgeous prose, unique characters, and a pace that keeps you turning the pages. From them, I learned a lot about characterization, pacing, prose, voice, and originality.” FeelsWritingKindBookCharacterThreeCoursesVoiceHoursNovelKingsPagesUniqueMy FavoriteProsePaceOriginalityTidesEpicGorgeousRiceCharacterizationPacing Author:Megan Chance
