Someone asked for recommendations for books for writers elsewhere, and since I made the effort to craft a response with links and everything, it seemed silly not to post it here. So, three fabulous books on writing:
William Goldman's Adventures in the Screen Trade.
Jane Yolen's Take Joy
The memoir half of Stephen King's On Writing.
Fun, well written, and filled with wisdom.

I like Lawrence Block's stuff on writing from years ago, both in his WD columns and on it's own. The two titles of his I have on my shelf are "Writing the Novel from Plot to Print" and "Telling Lies for Fun and Profit" (the latter is a collection of his WD columns). I always walk away from them inspired and energized to write, no matter how many times I've read them.
