This was a fun, quick read and I really enjoyed the authors' approach to writing and creativity. The seven Gremlins are hilariously and painfully accurate - I can easily imagine a little critter whispering in my ear that I should start yet another writing project before finishing my current one. The authors explain very well why the gremlins exist and how we can beat them instead of beating up ourselves. I also enjoyed the little snippets from some published authors and their experience with the gremlins. Definitely fun and inspiring.
