Question

In your opinion, who is the best writer ever?

Answer 1

I enjoy Dorothy Parker quite a bit.

Answer 2

Stephen King, and J.K. Rowling.

Answer 3

Well of all time i would have to say William Shakespeare. Seriously the amount of irony and foreshadowing his words contain is crazy.

I also agree that Jane Austen is very good.

Answer 4

i couldn't possibly pick.  there are some authors who are renowned already for being excellent writers, some who you like because it's your taste and not someone else's.  there are far too many out there - and thank God for that.

Answer 5

It's really hard to make a choice, but Jane Austen perhaps.

Answer 6

I love Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

I don't know if he is the "best writer ever"; it would take me forever to decide that, but he is my favorite, so that is close enough.

Answer 7

Stephenie Meyer!!

Answer 8

I really don't think any author can take the top spot, but I do love Jane Austen and Ernest Hemingway.  Their work has always intrigued me.

Answer 9

Stephenie Meyer, most deff.

She wrote Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn. They're AMAZING! Her characters are so breath-taking. I can't even contemplate the fact that they're.. fake.

Answer 10

george orwell!

Answer 11

The best writer?

Oh, that's difficult! Too many choices, too many choices. If I had to pick, I would say....

Charles Dickens (his books are slow, but he was an amazing writer).

Jane Austen (she had a gift, man. She could say so much using so few words. Not many authors can do that).

Mark Twain (Need I say more? He's considered one of America's greatest authors for a reason. He's my favorite author).
