I think BSF asked that we move on to more CDM related stuff, which seems like a reasonable request. If this disucssion really must continue, move it to another thread.Anyway, what I use for writing? Well... reading mostly. Ihave this horrible habit of moving into the style of whatever I last read. Art Memoir was very much in the style of Chuck Palahniuk. Grow (at least I think that it was called, I can never remember my titles) was in the style of some of Gaimen's Sandman. Distortion (name?) was kind of in the flavor of American Gods. I always try to never directly steal anything, never edge over into plagarism, but I always tend to find myself writting in the style of whatever I last read. Generally it works well for me, and forces me to write in a fairly broad range of styles. I'd like to think that Grow and Art Memoir have very little in common style wise.As for more direct writing resources? Well, I still have clear memories of High School english (only a couple of years ago for me), and I'm taking a Cerative Writing course this fall. I really hsould read some of these things others have mentioned, but I find that I'm at my best by just readig a lot and trying to absorb why I like what I like.</blockquote>
