I am kind of "goth" and I love to read. I like William Blake and stuff like that. Any good reading suggestions?

If you're up to a challenge, Ms. Goth, try The Gormenghast Novels by Mervyn Peake...they're about as dark and goth as it gets. Do you enjoy Edgar Allen Poe? Read his short stories...they're better than his poetry. Also, the Kushiel fantasy series by Jaqueline Carey, might interest you. If you're not into sword and sorcery fantasy, try Tad Williams' Otherland series for some pretty ripping, avant-guarde computer fantasy.

HP Lovecraft, Poppy Z. Brite, Neil Gaiman and Clive Barker's short stories.

Susan K has it right!
However, which avatar of William Blake do you like?
He was so many different people...
Paul (sniffed so much molten/melding metal that my lungs burn with every breath and remind me that a succubus awaits my attention) Woods
or: cwoodsp - you work it out
