A thing that's been on my backburner for like 1½ years now¹ is a blog article on my conlang's causatives. For this, I already gathered some literature:
  • Comrie, Bernard. Language Universals and Linguistic Typology. Syntax and Morphology. 2nd ed. London: Blackwell, 1989. 165–84. Print.
  • Dixon, Robert M. W. “A Typology of Causatives.” Changing Valency: Case Studies in Transitivity. Eds. Robert M. W. Dixon and Aleksandra Y. Aikhenvald. Cambridge: CUP, 2000. 30–83. Print.
  • Song, Jae J. “Nonperiphrastic Causative Constructions.” The World Atlas of Language Structures Online. Ed. Matthew S. Dryer and Martin Haspelmath. 2013. Max Planck Digital Library, 2013. Web. 9 Jan. 2013.
  • Talmy, Leonard. Toward a Cognitive Semantics. Vol. 2. 2nd ed. Cambridge: MIT P, 2001. 69–101. Print.

Besides some general stuff:
  • Payne, Thomas E. Describing Morphosyntax. A Guide for Field Linguists. Cambridge: Cambridge UP, 1997. 175–86. Print.
  • Schachter, Paul and Fe T. Otanes. 1972. Tagalog Reference Grammar. Berkeley: U of California P, 1983. 313–14. Google Books. Google, 2011. Web. 9 Jan. 2013.
  • Van Valin, Robert D., Jr. An Introduction to Syntax. Cambridge: Cambridge UP, 2003. 22–33. Print.

Do you guys know of anything important that I missed but should definitely look into?

¹ I wish Real Life would allow me to do the things I want to do more often.

I think some more general stuff on voice would be cool too, no? Like Klaiman's Grammatical Voice?
