 I don't know about you, but I love reading books to help me on my craft. Even after 4 years of college and years of writing experience, I am still learning new things and techniques. Armed with my highlighter, I mark up these books and take notes on what I can use for my writing. The only down side, carrying those books and highlighters around. The joy of the electronic age, is that you I don't have to anymore. Yes, e-books is one way to electronically learn, but so are podcasts.
