I don't have one, because I've read too many books over the years. Started reading when I was very young and never stopped. There are series I hag onto, but I don't have a single author that is my favorate, just a bunch of ones who I enjoy....

Snowleopard:
Anne McCaffrey. Found the Ship that Sang at a local drugstore when I was in High School.
Got me into reading Science Fiction. People like Andre Norton. The Beast Master was one of my favorites.
Then Star Trek came on the air.
Reading and watching S.F. got me into going to the conventions and, shudder, working on conventions.
I became interested in S.F. art and in writing from there.
The rest, as they say, is history.

this one made me weep. I love it!
Frogge:
Isaac Asimov. My first brother introduced me to him about a year after the divorce from my first husband. Asimov opened new doors for me in terms of living my life. I can't really say he has influenced my writing, which is pretty scant. I'm gradually trying to get over the bureaucratic style imposed by over 20+ years in a Federal job.
