Excerpt
I'd be the first to admit that a good writer's library is invaluable. Like most writers who have been at this craft for more than 6 months, I've sunk quite a bit of money into writing books, at least $350 right after I graduated with my degree alone. And that was 4 years ago, you can imagine the writing library has grown since then. We are told to read to be better writers; read fiction to see how other authors write, read on writing to get insight to the writing process, read other nonfiction to keep in touch with our world. However, books on writing have their own special dangers, particularly for new writers.
