I was on twitter earlier on today and Folknology stated he’d recently updated his book shelf, and asked to see others, being at work I couldn’t get in front of the shelf, but I did have some of my latest purchases in my other laptop bag.
The old adage that ‘writers read,’ bares so much truth I find. Whilst I’m reading my writing is a lot more fruitful and productive, the books above have been helping me out a lot recently with all the ideas of chapter five; death, fate, free will, sci-fi in general.
So what would you say helps you write? It really depends on the person. For some it's a change of scenery, or returning to the place where they can focus the most. For me, it's making sure I'm up to date on my workout. I wasn't too much into fitness, ever, but I did have to lose some weight. Finding success made me stick to it.

Definitely reading, but when it comes down to the actual act of writing, I need silence. TV, music or Internet will at least quadruple the amount of time it takes me to write and edit a decent paragraph.

If you have some good tips on "how to write" I'd love to hear them. As many people, I'm sure, say - I have good ideas, but it doesn't seem to translate onto paper.
I regularly write blogs, and I have been told I have a good "voice" (people I know say it sounds like me when I write) - but I can't seem to find my voice when it comes to fiction!
(And if you need a good proof-reader I'd love to get involved. I've always wanted to get into proof-reading!)
