This is sitting next to our coffee machine at work, and so every day, when I go get my afternoon java, I read a page of it while it's brewing. This, like many things of its type, has meditations that are more helpful than others, but that lies inasmuch in its universal inclusion as it does in the book itself-- in other words, there's something for everyone, but not everything is for everyone. Clear as mud? Great!
In any case, it has useful ideas, and it certainly gets me thinking -- o More...

It was an interesting read, but the author is more aimed at the type of writer who has unlimited time to do some of the DAILY multi-page exercises offered.

Started reading this in the middle a few weeks ago. I don't do them all as some of them just don't spark my creative fancy. But the one's that do have me writing for a good period of time. I agree with what someone said earlier, that this is meant for someone that has unlimited time to write. People who write professionally or as a serious hobby would have a fine time everyday with this book.

I love, love, love this book! Wonderful meditations and inspirations on "the writing life." I began reading it in July, so started on page 192, for July 8. Now I'm circling back around to the beginning ... page 17, for January 15.

Helpful, even if you don't do the exercises. Helps seat me in the "writing mode."

I will need to put in an ILL for this book or request it to purchase for the library. :)

If you have the time to write at least once a day for a year, this book is actually very helpful in building your writing skill.

If you like learning something new every day, this is the book for you. It's geared towards writers, but any creative soul would probably really like the daily reflections and 'try this' portions.
If you are a writer, one who wants to hone their skills, you'll probably have a hard time only reading one page a day!
