"Ten Lessons to Transform Your Marriage"
This book will teach you how to avoid the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" (Contempt, Criticism, Defensiveness, and Stonewalling) when arguing with your partner, and learn how to fight fairly and constructively. It has great examples of how real couples have put the lessons into practice.
and
"Writing Past Dark"
A book about how to overcome the emotions and dilemmas that block your creativity, from feeling envious of another's writing success to worrying about what your proper Auntie will think of your erotic novel.

Thanks for the recommendations.
