25 Authors and What's On Their Bucket List
25 Authors and What's On Their Bucket List
Alena Dillon
I love to travel, and have been fortunate to visit many spectacular places. But there are so many more destinations to explore, food to sample, wine to sip. And places I’d like to return. So for my bucket list, just more.
Camille Pagan
Visit Hawaii with my kids.
Brenda Janowitz
Go back to Hawaii.
Michael Ledwidge
Top of my bucket list would be to see America come together over something and have a little fun like it used to do when I was a kid.
Michael McAuliffe
See our children more.
Katrin Schumann
Sleeping in a treehouse in the Cloud Forest in Costa Rica, with the monkeys and parrots.
Erica Boyce
The glow-worm caves in New Zealand and/or LM Montgomery’s Prince Edward Island.
Rebecca Serle
Stick to a meditation practice.
Gretchen Berg
To own a house with one of those massive fireplaces that take up an entire wall.
Deanna Raybourn
I don’t have a bucket list because that feels too regimented. I have daydreams instead and they change on a regular basis—largely because I usually make them happen.
Karen Brooks
The Orkneys in Scotland. I really want to go to the island where Victor Frankenstein made his monster’s bride, but I’d also happily settle for the Shetlands (they’re not too far north-east of the Orkneys). Ann Cleeves’ series set in these islands is captivating. Or, the isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides and which is so beautifully captured in a few of Peter May’s novels.
Audrey Wick
Australia! I’ll get there someday.
Drica Pinotti
Make a movie!
Shea Oliver
Sail around the world. For a boy who grew up in Kansas and moved to Colorado, the idea of being in a sailboat, crossing oceans, and visiting distant lands is a neverending dream.
Barbara Barth
Not to kick the bucket.
Amber Cowie
Professionally, I would love one of my books to be optioned for a television series. Personally, surprise my daughter, son and husband with a trip to Hawaii (don’t tell them J)
John K. Danenbarger
Spend time with my family in the USA and Norway. And maybe take one last sailing trip between Italy and Corsica.
Tessa Dare
Raising baby goats.
Kathleen West
You mean after publishing my debut novel? I’ll go with running a trail marathon. That sounds like a wild adventure.
Susan Mallery
I don’t know that I have a bucket list. I’m very fortunate that my writing career has given me the freedom to pursue my interests. There’s nothing I can think of that I would regret not having done if I were to die tomorrow. I’m blessed, and so grateful.
Hilary Davidson
Space travel
Nicola Harrison
Buy a beach house.
Laura Lippman
I'm trying to be a Stephen Sondheim completist, seeing at least one production of everything to which he has contributed (so I have to do the early work, too, the ones for which he wrote only lyrics). I've got a ways to go, but what a journey.
Susan Cushman
to publish another novel
Hazel Prior
Plant a forest.
