Have you read a book that changed your life? A book that inspired you, or made you laugh, or kindled your imagination -- or possibly even saved you? I would argue that every book you've read has influenced you, even if just a little bit.

Now, what do you think writing that book did to the author?

Authors are a strange breed, typing away in coffee houses or spending hours talking to ourselves as we work out the flow of dialogue in a scene. Many authors would tell you they put their hearts and souls into the books they write.
