Book Reviews of The Pocket Muse
Book Review: "Writers Block Be-Gone!"
Summary: 5 Stars
(To be read in the voice of an infomercial host...)
Attention all writers! Ever catch a nasty case of that pesky writer's block? Of course you have! Oh sure, the writing is smooth sailing today, you say, but what about tomorrow? Everyone, at some point or another, will hit a big rock that is, more likely than not, hard to heave out of your way.
Fear not!
"The Pocket Muse" is an instant cure for writer's block! Just open to this handsome/highly-portable book--yes, that's right, to ANY page--and an inspirational passage, writing advice, or even a picture will leap off these beautifully glossed pages and you will be instantly cured. And if not? Once again, fear not! Just flip to another page, people, there's something here for everyone!
(/Infomercial-Voice)
On a serious note, my fellow writers, this is a great little book. It's not a how-to-write, though. It's a book for people who DO write, who have already established or are READY to establish a writing life, and this book will help you with what you need to maintain that life. As I said before, not every idea or every page will help everyone, but there is indeed something that anyone and everyone will take out of the book as a whole. It's filled with so many differing ideas that it would be impossible not to benefit from the advice/push that this book gives you. As a writer myself, I highly recommend this book.
