1- Devil At My Heels, the Louis Zamperini story.
2- Ian McEwan's collection of shorts: "In Between the Sheets and Other Stories." And "First Love, Last Rites." This author was among my first inspirations to write short fiction. Memorable stories include "Reflections of a Kept Ape," "Solid Geometry" and "Dead As They Come." Mesmerizing. Disturbing.
I don't read novels. |

To you George... The Shining is creepy on so many levels... The movie was good too, but I just chuckled when Jack went durr durr durrrrr... I think I have the Shining... Today on my way home from some swimming I was thinking about coming around the bend in my neighborhood, and hitting a girl and her dog. As soon as I turned there was a girl there with a dog!!! Luckilly I hit the breaks in time... Phew... |

Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry. Nothing's better than a good old western. |

Yeah, only write about it. Most of us freaks write so we don't actually do the things we write about. No actually hitting the girl and her dog. But maybe it would make a good script... |

I haven't had a lot of time for reading for the past few month or two. I think when I get done with all of the scripts for this summer, I'm going to sit down and dive into Tolkien...maybe I'll read The Lord of the Rings again...

I took this reading class last year and read a few of the classics. I don't have a favorite book but the ones that really stuck in my mind this year were The Great Gatsby and The Scarlet Pimpernel. Wonderful stuff. |

White Jazz, by James Ellroy. A gripping finale to his "L.A. Quartet" series of books (including The Black Dahlia, The Big Nowhere and L.A. Confidential) told in a very clipped and terse manner. Very complex, violent and absorbing; I've read it six times already and each and every time, once I started I could not put it down.
This book had a big influence on me and anytime I write a cop thriller, I've got this book in the back of my mind. |

No offence, but if this is the best book you've read, you really need to read more. |
