[b]Jim Bucher[/b] of [i]The Dresden Files[/i] fame has always been an author whose style I love.  I really want to learn how to write the way he does because the imagery, pace and humor he uses in a modern fantasy setting is just perfect, in my eyes.

I enjoy reading [b]Anne Rice[/b], [b]Stephen King[/b] and [b]Brian Lumley[/b] as well as plenty of others, but Butcher's style just mirrors the goal for my own style of writing far better.  Everything is done in the protagonist's first person perspective and , even knowing the characters' thoughts to some extent, Butcher still finds ways to surprise the reader, add suspense, and even be a bit cheeky.
