The Top Five Sexiest Writers, with the caveat that they are modern ones.
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Missed some obvious ones.
Edna O'Brien is famously babely.
John Irving (on the left, with his taller son) is also a looker and has the wrestler's physique.
He's also turned into a Silver Fox.
I also think Doris Lessing was pretty hot back in the fifties before she settled into her wise crone mode.
Caroline Blackwood was famous as a beauty before she was a writer.
Ted Hughes had the rough hewn thing.

Admittedly, my tastes run to the eccentric, but no Neil?

Always Anti-fascist!
I know! I would have included Michael Chabon also...maybe Jonathan Lethem.

Yeah, the guy who did that piece really limited himself with five. And I was surprised Hughes wasn't on there, too. He was all broody and angsty, too.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I am currently listening to _The Strain_ whilst commuting and reading _13 bullets_ while at the gym. I should probably not be simultanously indulging in two different varieties of vampire lore...but....

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
How is Hughes = mayhaps gay! a little known fact?
Thought that was knowledge comma common.

I didn't know that about Hughes. I didn't know it about Kerouac, either, though.

Possibly, I view the world through LGBT lenses. My world contains much of the queer knowledge!
