World’s most mundane autobiography
WARNING: This book does not teach you how to write. It is a story about a writer - with exercises. If this book teaches you anything it’s how to deal with the failures and successes of being a writer. Even there, the info is scant:
Lesson 1: how to sit on a chair
Lesson 2: how to sit naked on a chair
Lesson 3: how to deal with the inevitable jealousy of other writers because all you have learned how to do is sit on a chair.
There is more, and sometimes it’s reasonably interesting, but with minor value. The title is very very very misleading, which is why I don’t mind being so negative in this review. I feel fairly cheated.
In summary, if “writers are people who write” sounds like a profound statement with inspiring qualities then this book is for you. If it strikes you as a meaningless tautology with zero instructive value, then buy something else.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
