Hm.

I can think of a few texts whose authors I'd like to chat with. If, you know, we knew who they were. And I shared a language with 'em.

Beyond that, I'd really like to have met Douglas Adams. Based on what he wrote in Salmon of Doubt, he seems to have been a pretty darn cool guy.

I have written to my own favorite author, C.J. Cherryh, and received a response from here.

I'm also toying with penning a letter to Ian Hodder, but that's more for his work as an archeologist.

Beyond those... honestly, I'm not sure what I could say that would be worthwhile.
