J.D. Salinger
J.D. Salinger, Rest in Peace. I loved his writing style in Catcher in the Rye, and his short stories were amazing for their boldness, imagination, and (believe it or not) symmetry.
One last thing about Mr. Salinger. Everyone writes for an audience. Authors often say they write for themselves, but who really writes only for himself? Very few. Even on this blog, I write mostly for you all. With my novel, I write for my eventual readers. I am the first reader, of course, but I don’t write with the idea that I will be the only one. I think that later in life, Salinger actually became someone who wrote only for himself.
