I've covered so much Tom Waits. He's one of my favorite writers. I have a real affinity to how he writes.
My favorite writer on 'The X-Files' is this guy Darin Morgan. He wrote my favorite episode and the top five favorite episodes that everyone loves.
Anything that Aaron Sorkin writes, I could watch a million times. One of the few shows that I've watched in repeats was 'The West Wing.'
My favorite short-story writer is John Cheever.
Guy Kay is probably my favorite and the writer I most want to emulate.
Most people know that Ray Bradbury is one of my favorite authors.
One of my favorite writers is Michel de Montaigne. My wife gave me a beautiful 17th-century edition of Montaigne's essays translated by John Florio. That's probably my most precious possession.
