  • Finally, the writing book I was really looking for.

    I’ve read quite a few books on writing. This is one that strikes a chord with me. Down to earth and practical, it cuts through all the conflicting advice out there, and offers real usable insights into the problems writers face. This is one I’ll be keeping on my shelf.

  • intresting reading

    Interesting reading although at time the author rambles about his past bringing nothing to the table just skim ahead I'm sure you will find something there.
