Just found this fantastic resource for writers - it's good for students, readers, writers, teachers and more. It should certainly go onOur Resources Page.
Do you agree? I've been playing on here and found The Literature Map where you put in an author you like and they draw out a map of similar authors that you will also probably like based on input from other readers. 13 Apr 2007 17:25:33 |

It sounds like it should go under a section for Fun or Reading.

wow thanks for that link. I am going to ask my work to post it on their site too (I work for a library).
I cant believe that I have read nearly all the authors listed on that map.. 10 May 2007 13:22:59

Which author did you put in to get your map?
I put in "Orson Scott Card" who wrote "Ender's Game" and came up with a list of authors that I've read (80% maybe). 11 May 2007 23:45:17 |

Terry Pratchett, I was SOOO happy to see Robert Rankin listed.
I was hoping to find some new author I'd not read before but that is one of the huge draw backs from working in a library. I see and read alot and have access to many books from other libraries too. Damn that Inter Library Loan! 12 May 2007 12:36:41

Haha! Cool. My wife used to work in a bookstore and was allowed to borrow. And, the people who worked there were the most well read people I've ever met.
It was fun being around them, since I love books so much (and seem to attract them - another one arrived in the mail randomly last week :) ) 14 May 2007 23:33:33 |
