Great Books & Other Stuff I Love

 People always ask me for book recommendations. These are some of the books I aspired to be worthy of sitting with on the same shelf when I wrote this one. They've all impacted my thoughts and my writing and I'd highly recommend each of them.  


As you scroll down, you'll also find podcasts, video games, mobile & web apps, product-related websites and other things that I love and wanted to share with you.  This list is updated regularly as I find new things worthy of sharing.
