A look at my toolkit

It’s a very strange feeling to realize you’ve been writing a story for 12 years. You learn things you couldn’t have dreamed of, and the nuance is more than a little startling. Also, you’ll never wonder whether or not you’re a writer. It’s been ingrained in you for a long time.

That said, everyone starts somewhere and I’m always learning more. Here are some of my favorite resources.
- Baby Names Book
- Orson Scott Card’s On Fantasy and Science Fiction
- Writer’s Digest special, once a year issue on Novel Writing
-Strathmore sketch book
-papermate sharperiter #2 yellow mechanical pencils
-precise v5 rolling ball (pilot?) extra fine pens
-peter pauper press or paperblanks notebooks
-iTunes music + headphones + my specially crafted playlist
- fashion 101 by Erica Stalder
- the writer’s toolbox, the elemental encyclopedia of magical creatures, artist’s way, the book of the dragon, and a host of other things, if I’m stuck.
