She has a very friendly conversational style which makes for a very pleasant read. She addresses all the essential questions: What makes a “good” nonfiction book? How do you stay on track while writing? How can you create a book that truly adds value for readers? What strategies can you use to inform, inspire, and engage your audience? Nonfiction types covered are: Biography Autobiography and memoir History Travel Self-Help How-To Philosophy Insight/Analytical The book is not just theory but also practical. Bingham provides interactive exercises and valuable resources to help new writers take their first steps into the world of nonfiction. Whether you’re interested in sharing your life story, exploring historical events, or providing practical advice, this book has you covered. I would highly recommend the book. ![]() This book is complete with interactive exercises and resources that provide new writers with thoughts, considerations, goals, and practice for jumping into the world of nonfiction writing. It is short and approachable if you are a new writer, but a bit basic for seasoned writers. ![]() Having said all that, I don't really think I learned anything from this book- maybe because I didn't do the exercises? Or maybe because I research and write for a living and so am already quite familiar with much of the processes described. Or, it might be that this book is very much an elementary introduction/bird's eye view to factual writing, and not really anything that gets too much into the weeds/specificity. The most helpful sections for me, personally, were "how to recognize rabbit holes" - i.e., how to include what needs to be included without spending too much time or effort on extraneous details, and the resources section, along with the discussions on editing and publishing - your mileage may vary. I would definitely recommend this book to novice writers or to people who want to write a book but are stuck with regard to how to get started. It is written in a conversational style that is easy to read and completely un-stuffy/"textbook-y" and I really appreciated that about it. Realize, though, that it's more about concrete ideas like structure, content, and process than it is about anything subjective like quality or effectiveness. I would give this book a solid 4-stars. I received an ARC and the preceding opinion is my own, given without compensation. ![]() geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
