Book Chat: A Non-Fiction Interlude
Reading List:
Secret Non-Fiction books
Last month, I was asked if I wanted to be a judge for a regional book awards contest, and I said yes. Which is how I came to be taking an extended reading interlude into the non-fiction book realm. While I can’t talk about the books I’m reading, it did get me thinking about the last non-fiction book(s) I’ve read. Here are the last three:
Newsletter Ninja by Tammi Labrecque
How to Become a Dictator by Kevin J. Anderson & Martin L. Shoemaker
15-Minute Dictation by Sean M. Platt and Neeve Silver
Needless to say, I’ve been studying up on how to write faster, and keep in touch with readers more efficiently. And I can highly recommend any of the above books if those are things you’re interested in (the second one is *not* instructions on how to take over a country, or any other group of people – sorry!).
I’ve only published one non-fiction book, which is the featured cover this week: Flash 52: 52 Writing Prompts for a Year of Flash Fiction (clearly not a “flash” title). But it does sell a few copies most months (and it’s on sale at Smashwords this month), so hopefully some people are finding it helpful. I’m considering doing some more things with prompts, actually. Lord knows I have far too many ideas and far too little time to get to them all.
What’s the latest non-fiction book you’ve read? Or are you a strictly fiction reader?
If you write non-fic, what’s the latest book you’ve written?
