Edgar Allen Poe

I think you can judge a lot about an author's personality in their stories. Most of the time author's write about life experiences. A psychotic story doesn't always come from a psychotic author. Edgar Allen Poe wrote psychotic stories, but his life was miserable. Although Edgar Allen Poe wrote psychotic stories and grew in misery, it doesn't mean he's psycho. It is very unfair to judge an author by his/her stories because it doesn't always mean they're really like that in person.
