Happy Galentine's Day!
It was hard to narrow this down to just five, but I wanted to share some love around for these female authors. Each one has influenced me in some way whether it was helping me learn something and/or bringing enjoyment.

Sorry for the rushed ending but my camera battery was about to run out and I was facing a scheduling time crunch, so I don't think I got around to my honorable mentions (Eliot and Didion). I will just have to talk about then in another "favorites" video some time. I hope you enjoy this little chat.

Five authors who have had an influence on my life:
1. Edith Wharton
2. Elizabeth Gaskell
3. Virginia Woolf
4. Daphne Du Maurier
5. Connie Willis

Honorable mentions:
George Eliot
Joan Didion
