I guess screenplays are my favorite form of writing. Tight, efficient, and focused. A tool to be used by others to create images.

Although, I do have a couple of book-length pieces (sci-fi, crime thriller, zombie apocalypse), as well.

But the books that have made me money were technical books. Back when people read books to learn about new technology...

Reading...

On the other end of the spectrum, I spent the majority of my life avoiding all fiction. I read science and history and studied religions.

Nowadays, it's Terry Pratchett. Neil Gaiman. Neil Stephenson. Bill Bryson. And books on language itself, like The Horlogicon.
