Sarah Said:

Does anyone know of any authors that write books completely in letter form?

We Answered:

The name for that type of novel is "epistolatory novel." Famous examples include "Pamela" by Samuel Richardson (considered by many the first novelist in the modern sense in English); ""es Liaisons Dangereuses" by Choderlos de Laclos. I believe Bram Stoker's "Dracula" is another example.

A modern example would be "Vox" by Nicolson Baker - I believe it starts as phone conversation, but ends as long chatroom exchanges. (It may be only phone dialogue -- but the feeling might be what you are looking for. FYI -- a lot of it is about sex.)
