Too many reference books
Overwhelming...
While putting together my online bookstore using products from Amazon, I was instantly overwhelmed by the number of books out there on the craft of writing. Books on dialogue. Books on genres. Books on marketing. Books on literary agents.
I simply wanted to put together a few helpful books about writing in various subjects. That is no small task.
It is easy to get bogged down on reading about writing that you spend more time learning than actually writing.
While these books may provide tips, tricks, and insight - it is important to follow a path of your own.
My bookshelf is filled with many of these books. The shelf is nicely organized by subject. The bad part is they sit there. The intention was to have them as a reference, which they are. But really, how many books on dialogue do you really need?
Writers: If you had to pick a book on the craft of writing, what reference/resource would you recommend?
