Our Texas home is two blocks from a Half-Price Books that keeps a great inventory of writing books. I've built up a library of about a hundred and I love them all. I'm currently looking for a copy of "Letters to a Fiction Writer" edited by Frederick Busch...

Watched "Wonder Boys" on TV last night. I'd forgotten how good it was. A lot of the writer-type stuff I didn't catch the first time around. Well written. It was recommended by Sam Havens, drama and writing professor extraordinaire, otherwise I might not have given it a second chance.
