10 Reading Exercises for Fiction Writers

http://writeitsideways.com/10-reading-exercises-for-fiction-writers/ I always find it exciting when I discover a book that in some way echoes whatever I happen to be writing at the time. It might share a similarity of style, story, or structure, or any combination of the three. Whatever the similarity, I find it helpful to delve into the writing to see what lessons I can glean.
