Review:
As a new author and writer myself I really enjoyed reading this helpful book. The author breaks down different forms of doubt a new author may have and how to get around those self doubt to finally start writing on your book.
I know sometimes I tend to have too many ideas with my writing and then I get stuck, the author tells how to get past the brainstorming phase and never stop being creative with your work.
The author also goes over my hardest question which is traditional or self publishing. The author breaks down both and both paths are perfect no one path is better is about time and I think marketing. I think either way it’s a great way to publish your book.
The author also talks about fear of writing and not being good enough. She says first and foremost you are an author published or not. The simple fact you want the intentions of being published one day automatically makes you an author. Fear is something natural and we see so many great writers come out of the publishing world it’s very easy for doubt and fear. The author says to push that aside and focus on what makes you creative at your craft.
Overall I really enjoy reading this self help book on writing. This is something I will refer to when writing on my own book because there are so many good tips in the book. I would recommend this self help book to any new writer it’s very helpful.
**I’ll like to note this book was sent to me for a review, the review is of my own and I wasn’t paid for this review*
