He was a song writer and not a poet, but I can't help wondering what other songs Jim Croche would have written if he had not died


Croce was great. Operator and I Got A Name are great songs.

I'd bring back Dr Seuss. As a kid, I loved his wonderful books of nonsense. As a parent, I'm still enjoying reading them to my kids now.

I'd pick the great poet, Jim Morrison.

"Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb through the tide
Penetrate the evenin' that the city sleeps to hide
Let's swim out tonight
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive "
(Now I just hope he wrote that quote and no other person from the group :P)

I'm sort of surprised that Tolkien hasn't been mentioned? I would have loved for him to have truly finished the Silmarillion and who knows what else he might have conceived? Although few people ever "got" what all the work was about, the tale of the elves fleeing Valinor when they should have followed the advice of the gods. The whole Hobbit and Lord Of the Rings was created to tell the greater story.

I am with ya, Sharon! I love her books, but damn! The more recent ones are just so not her usual style.

Being a fan of horror/macabre, I would bring back either Poe or H.P. Lovecraft.....Two of my top inspirations in my writing. I would also bring back Mario Puzo, but only because I'd love to pick his mind and see what made him tick.

I would also bring back JD Salinger. I often wondered whether or not he would've did a series on Holden Caulfield's life after his teenage years.

He had plenty of time in which to do that. So, he probably felt that everything had been said, at least from his perspective as the author.

Not really dead... But I wish Joe Mad would get his shit together and finish Battle Chasers. He created an awesome world and characters then just abandoned it.

It would also be cool to have the Marquis de Sade write some stories set in the present day.

LOL! I doubt it. The Divine Marquis was actually quite moralistic.

Douglas Adams so that he could tell me about how he came up with the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy


I have the omnibus collection containing all hitchhiker's stories and it has a preface about how Adams came up with the idea to write HHGTTG.
He's definitely on my list to bring back too.

This is true, Salinger withdrew for many years and I guess he indeed felt he had nothing left to say. But his literary work is superb.
I'd bring him back and force him to write.

Third and final author I'd bring back is Chaim Potok. Reading "The chosen" at age 16 was very influential as there were some interesting links I made with my personal life. Read most of his work and it's brilliant.

To satisfy my frustration, Robert Jordan. As an all-time favorite who maybe could have given us even more genius, Tolkien- although he may have needed another 50 years to write another book. And as a hopeful writer of erotica, how about A.N. Roquelaure.

What's that you say? She's not dead? She's turned all Bible thumper- er, I mean, had a religious awakening? Oh. Damn. Anaïs Nin, then.

This is probably an unusual one for most, but I really got into Albert Camus in my first year of University.

Two of his novels, The Stranger (or L'Etranger) and The Fall, are still favourites of mine.

Yes!! The Stranger is one of the most underrated novels in how it perceives a situation from Meursault's point of view.

My Gran; after she passed away we found this amazing poem she wrote, we never even knew. I'd bring her back if I could ha ha but she'd be a bit disgusted with our filthy minds at Lush
