1116185 Sorry, had to pick two that weren't on the list... Pratchett is one of my favorite fantasy authors.


message 2: by Yolanda (new)

1595533 Fantasy is my favorite. I love mystical creatures - fairies, brownies, unicorns, dragons, loch ness, mermaids, even bigfoot. I could go on forever because I wish they were real - I think we would all be better for it. Everything is so much less than peaceful. I would rather be distracted, preferably by something with wings!
