This is inspired by JeanneTCG's signature, which tells us that Louis L'Amour is her patron saint.
I love that idea. I love the thought of having a writer as your patron saint. So, because it's late and I should be reading a slush pile, I'm here suggesting that we each pick a writer who is, in essence, a patron saint.
(if you choose to write to your patron writer and tell them this, please don't mention me; in fact, please don't write to them.)
Your Patron Saint should exemplify everything that you want to achieve with your writing, what you love about writing and reading. Your Patron Saint should be someone that you wouldn't mind being like, whom you have a great deal of respect for, both as a writer and/or as a person. See what I mean?
Anyway, I guess I'll do mine first. There. It's in my signature.
