I'm pretty indecisive about reading, but these two are definitely on my list:
Night by Elie Wiesel
Player Piano by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
I started the Dialect of Enlightenment by Horkheimer and Adorno again, but its rather dense, and I read a lot of dense materiel in my classes.
I'll have a few more, I'm sure. I'm doing a reading challenge through work, and I have yet to actually decide on which books I am reading.

I go through life and find the most inspirational things in that oddest of places. Sometimes its in song lyrics or a phrase someone says in a movie. Other times in class my professor will say something and I'll have a basic plot built around just a few words he said instead of paying attention.

Write to be creative, not for money.

I step away from my computer for a few days and try not to think about writing. Soon enough I have fresh ideas that I can out down.

Writers take words, which are basically a set of random symbols and we create an entire world that is vibrant and lively in someone else's head. Writers create something from nothing.

Sadly for the last week or so I've been focused on my new classes. However, I am working on a dark piece that talks about faith and losing it.

The majority of the stories in "This Side of Happiness" grew out of a desire to explore new territory as a writer. I really want to be able to write in more than one genre or style.
