3am Epiphany

That is the title of the new book i just bought. I made the horrible mistake of going to Barnes&Noble today after Belle Tire fixed my car with the intent to "Just look". YEAH RIGHT. I of course purchased a book, and its actually pretty damn sweet.
It's a writing book. it's pretty much a book of different ideas/scenarios/exercises to better your writing. Here, for example:

"Write a fragment of a story about a villain who gets away with a serious and perhaps brutal crime and enjoys the fruits of his crime. Love this character an'd try to make him at least somewhat lovable to us. 600 words"

AWESOME! I can't freaking wait to write that!! so theres like 200 of these exercises plus chapters on critiquing and writers block and POV and all those other important things writers have to worry about.

It should be a fun book to have on our roadtrip to CO.
