This is an author who you’ll automatically buy their newest release, no questions asked, and read it as soon as you get home.
For me, it’s Stephen King! I’ve rarely been disappointed by a King novel (although, ironically, one of his latest releases Fairy Tale that I preordered actually was a miss for me. Still doesn’t deter my love for him!)
I think it’s awesome that there are writers in this world we would spend money for at the drop of a hat, it’s a type of trust we have with the author to basically guarantee enjoyment from their latest work.
So who’s your automatic author?
W. Michael & Kathleen O’Neal Gear! The books they write together & separately! Wonderful writers & they each write in several genres! I began reading their works in the 1990’s! My favorites on Kindle are Steve Higgs & Ellen Riggs. They are not partners, but have somewhat similar styles. Cozy mysteries with lots of humor & animals as thinking characters! Jean Grainger writes Irish historical Fiction, & I always read hers. In fact I’m reading one of hers on Kindle now AND a Gear-Gear paperback, too!! Also through the Kindle Challenge’s FB group, I’ve become real friends with an Urban Fantasy author, Margie McDonnell Welsh. It’s not my go-to genre, but I’ve read & enjoyed them & am awaiting the next book! Other than these 6 people, I read for subject matter, not the author.
