Reading List for 2010

Depending on how long you’ve known me, you may know that I was at one time a prolific reader of books. Even when school was not in session, I’d have one or two going at a time. As I’ve gotten older, more professional, more husbandy, more fatherly, etc. I have made reading less and less of a priority. However, this year one of my resolutions is going to be to read at least 12 books.  That’s one a month.

Here is my list to choose from (a.k.a. what’s sitting on my shelves unread at the moment):

• Rust Hills – Writing
• Steven Koch – Writer’s Workshop
• Julia Cameron – The Right to Write
• Orson Scott Card – Characters & Viewpoint
• Bruce Holland Rogers – Word Work
• Margaret Atwood – Selected Poems
• Albert Camus – Exile & The Kingdom
• Moira Allen – Writing.com
• Shawn Martinbrough – How to Draw Noir Comics
• Will Eisner – Graphic Storytelling & Visual Narrative
• Leonard Cohen – Let Us Compare Mythologies
• Leonard Cohen – Book of Longing
• Paolo Bacigalupi – Windup Girl
• Scott Westerfield – Leviathan
• George Saunders – The Brain-dead Megaphone
• Billy Collins – Ballistics
• Steve Martin – Born Standing Up
