Make 2013 the year you read some of those books you already own and dig into the riches of you to-be-read pile!
Read all about it at planetpooks. I hope to see you there!

"Type so hard you bruise the screen."
From the Austin Chronicle -- 30 New Essential Thoughts for Writers.
I am going to stress these three. You should go read the rest.
8. Writing takes time. Don’t find the time to write. Make the time. If necessary, abandon sleep, people, television and drink.
9. Treat writing like a hobby and you will receive nothing but the fruits of a hobby. It’s a vocation. Honor it as such.
10. Don’t say you’re trying to be a writer. If you’re writing then you are a writer. Publication is nice, but has nothing to do with the definition.
Go write like it's your gift, because it is.
