Reading & Writing
Well I’ve finally taking up writing once again, but now I’m trying to get back into reading! the only problem is that I don’t even know WHERE to begin. I have a few boxes FULL of books, most of which I’ve read multiple times. Most of it consists of trendy authors (Crichton, Harris, Rice, Brown) and a bunch of classic literature I thought I would get around to reading at some point, but never have. Being that I’m kinda getting back into things I don’t think I wanna read something as complex as some of the classics can be.
So does anyone have any suggestions? Authors they’ve enjoyed or a specific book they’ve read over & over again? My tastes run wide so I’d be willing to consider a wide variety of genres.
Basically I’m just trying to expand myself since nothing else really seems to be panning out for me, and at this point, ANYTHING that can distract me from my harsh reality would be a welcome change of pace compared to constantly monitoring TV channels. I’m seriously so burnt out on TV, I have the last 3 weeks of FlashForward recorded and can’t bring myself to watch them…and I LOVED the pilot!

Dude, if you’ve never read it…and Dead Whispers will back me up on this…Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz. It’s by far his best book and one of my all time favorites. I think it’s right up your ally.
pssst – diggz – the grey “action” links (like to the comments and stuff) are hard to see.
ot – Neil Gaiman ftw. :p
Thanks for the suggestions guys! *hopes more are forthcoming*
