Who are your top three writers?

do women or minorities count?

>>9215771
Sure!

>>9215774
why...?

>>9215785
Because they're able to write.

>>9215791
What does that have to do with them counting?

>>9215792
They count because they're able to write.

1. Joyce
2. Dostoevsky
3. Gass

>>9215797

Monkeys can write.

>>9215800
Can they count?

>>9215800
No they can't.

>>9215800
I'm sure if a monkey produced something you deemed top 3, he would be one of your picks then.

>>9215801

I would hope not...

>>9215804

Oh that's bullshit. You're letting monkeys in?

>>9215804
You asked for top 3 writers not top 3 works, it's conceivable your favorite author is there due to consistency, not just one great work.

And I think monkeys would fall into the latter category.

1. Me
2. The guy with the post number 13376669 (will be decades from now)
3. Dostojewsky

>>9215815
I'm not the OP btw, but it all depends on what you value the highest when it comes to qualifying your favourite author.
And monkey's can't write, obviously.
