I figured I'd start a thread so we could recommend things to help us create, or be inspired by to continue our writing to the best of our ability.
My recommendations are:
The War Of Art - Steven Pressfield. Simple book, easy to read and only $10 at Amazon or pretty much any bookstore. It talks about the struggles of the creative side and how to deal with them. Has helped me on more than one occasion (the last part of it gets a bit into the spiritual side of writing but the first few portions are brutal and direct about what we do and don't do)
Big Fan - Great, little movie starring Patton Oswalt. Fine character piece about a man who loves his football team more than himself. Written and directed by Robert Siegel (wrote The Wrestler), it has a 70's movie feel to it. Very good.
