Hello all!

Our long thread of potential future authors is not working for some reason. (I'm not sure what's going on there.) There were not a ton of responses on there any there anyway so I'm starting this new thread to finish out the year.

Please nominate as many authors as you want by adding them to this thread by September 1. Feel free to second anyone's nominations as well.

I'll then pick the next three authors from the nominees.

Thanks :)

I am good with King or Allende.

How about Zola? I don't see him on the list. I see Wharton on the prior list but it's been a while. I have Age of Innocence on my to-read list.

Okay then, we'll do King, Allende, and McCall Smith. I'll start the threads momentarily.
