THIS IS SO AWESOME. So many names of writers I love. And me too!

I find this picture fascinating. While obviously not a comprehensive picture of every kind of writing, it is a fairly comprehensive picture of a certain flavor of fiction. And in selecting authors to fill each spot, the person who made the selections picked all women authors, except for one.

I haven’t read more than a few of these authors, but I have enjoyed the ones I have. Seeing them all laid out like this is kind of a big motivator to read more of them.

They were making a point with their selections: the original, non-ironic, totally “what I just picked the best people, why are you looking at me funny” version of this graphic was all male authors, with one woman (who had a gender-neutral name and could have been included by mistake).

“Well,” Sebastian Stan’s agent will say, “he’s the closeted son of a politician, struggling with PTSD after his military service.”

“Uh-huh. What’s he named?”

“Theodore Roosevelt O’Toole, but—”

“I’ll take it.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to read the script first?”

“No. No need. This is the role I was born to play.”

"Do I get to kiss boys and cry about my fucked up life and choices?”

“Uh… yes?”

“Where do I sign?
