I read the first two sections and I found it was extremely helpful to me. His voice is definitely that of an encouraging, loving grandfather. Most of it was motivational, though there was some discussion of technique.
Definitely recommended!

I swayed back and forth between "liked it" and "really liked it" when rating this book. There were chapters that were amazing and inspiring, but there were also chapters that felt redundant and too personal to his own writing techniques. Something that I will take away from this book is not to give up on my writing. I recommend this book, but I also recommend to skip around to what most interests you.
