This is an example of a book with a very good title, but little else. The author appears to have done hardly any research, mostly tells you stuff any writer would know, and the good advice — much of it is very good — is obvious. For example, you should sleep well. Eat fruit and vegetables. Exercise. Take breaks while writing. There is one bit of advice he gives — and he’s passionate about this — you should self-publish your book, as he did.

Press on

Recommend to anyone that is trying to better themselves. Lots of interesting ideas and good examples from others. Will probably read again.

Martin Meadows writes concise and helpful self-help books. This one for writers is one of many of his gems. I found this book incredibly helpful. Very well written, to the point, no BS, and helps nearly any type of writer.

Repetitive, obvious, and poorly written.
