Commonly Referenced
It bugs me when people reference uncommon books, authors, or other materials as though they’re commonly known. So here’s a list of references you’ll see pretty regularly about the blog. Each title links to the entries which reference it. I try to keep it updated, but if I missed something, please tell me!
