یه کتاب مختصر و خوب برای شروع و مرور تکنیک‌های نویسندگی که می‌تونه برای هر نویسنده‌ای خصوصا نو قلم ها مفید باشه.
کتاب نه به شکل تخصصی و متمرکز روی تکنیکی خاص، که به شکل فراگیر به مهم‌ترین عناصر داستان‌ و همه‌ی صورت‌های نوشتاری از جمله داستان، نمایشنامه، فیلمنامه، شعر، سفرنامه و ... نگاهی کوچیک می‌ندازه و نمونه‌هایی هم واسه درک بهتر در اختیار خواننده قرار می‌ده.

ممکنه سوال پیش بیاد برای چه گروهی از نویسنده‌ها مناسبه؟
به نظرم برای هر نویسنده‌ای می‌تونه مفید باشه مطالبش
(چه مبتدی چه باتجربه)
برای نوقلم‌ها از این جهت خیلی خوبه که اونا رو با تعدادی از تکنیک‌های نویسندگی خلاق آشنا می‌کنه و نمونه‌هایی هم بهشون معرفی می‌کنه.
برای نویسنده‌های باتجربه هم از این بابت که بعضی از نکته‌ها رو می‌تونه واسه‌شون آشکار و شفاف کنه.
یا مروری باشه برای اطلاعات و تجاربی که دارن.

کتاب خوب و جامعی است و به همه کسانی که میخواهند از یک مخاطب منفعل کتاب ها به یک‌نویسنده تبدیل شوند توصیه میشود.

[Madeleine McLaughlin · Rating 5 out of 5]

Keep this book near you when you're writing or thinking of writing. Pull it out of the drawer if you're stuck with your writing project. It has good advice all in one place and many ideas to stir your creativity. Recommended.

I did take some notes while reading this but, for the most part, I felt it was a very basic and elementary read about the basics of writing and I was looking for something a little more in depth. It read like a “... for Dummies” book.

This book has held my attention for days since I've gotten it. It has made me grown as a writer so much. I LOVE this book! It is a very helpful and needed book for writers of all genres!

This Book gives a clear picture and key differences about A to Z writing for the Beginners not for prodigies.

[Saeedeh Ghasemian · Rating 3 out of 5]

ترجیح می‌دادم روی یه حوزه تمرکز می‌کرد، مباحثش خیلی پراکنده مطرح شده و هی از این شاخه به اون شاخه پریده.

[Elisabeth Warner · Rating 3 out of 5]

It is so informative, but VERY outdated. The author suggests recording my book ideas on a tape recorder! I must say, it is a GREAT intro into the world of writing, publishing, and editing, but I would do research after reading this for more current information. I would also be willing to read a more updated version of this book if there is one out there.

[Jaime Barfield · Rating 3 out of 5]

Long read. However there is a lot of helpful information in there. I enjoyed it. I definitely was able to find things that will help me.

Broad but shallow.

[Ali Ashouri]

کتاب «همه چیز درباره‌ی نویسندگی خلاق» برخلاف اسمش همه چیز نیست؛ یعنی قرار نیست کتاب جامعی باشد. آشنایی مختصری است با نویسندگی! قالب‌های مختلف نگارش را بررسی می‌کند. دربارهٔ هر کدام کمی حرف می‌زند و خواننده را با آن قالب آشنا می‌سازد. به فرایند نوشتن و کارهای مرتبط با آن می‌پردازد. چند مصاحبه با نویسندگان مختلف هم در آن قرار دارد تا اثر را متنوع‌تر کند! اگر توقع زیادی نداشته باشید، کتاب خوبی خواهد بود. من نمی‌توانم از کتاب‌های مربوط به نویسندگی، توقع زیادی داشته باشم. قرار نیست که مرا نویسنده کنند. آدم که فقط با خواندن، نویسنده نمی‌شود، می‌شود؟! 🤔

It was a nice book and I enjoyed some of the information. However I thought it was going to include more activities to creatively think on the wedding which it did not do - so it disappointed me that way. I will still read "the everything" books though.

[Tyler · Rating 3 out of 5]

The best part for me was the end she the author put several links to different books and publications. I enjoyed the general prose of the book. I liked Writing Fiction for Dummies better than this. But, overall this was a good book and resource.

[Kirsti Call · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book did not hold my attention, probably because I'm not really putting in the time for actual writing.

[Tamera · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wonderful tool to use as a resource. I wish I had the book for myself. Some books just are not the same unless you can add them to your own resources.

[AlixJamie · Rating 4 out of 5]

I found out too late that this was not the book I SHOULD have gotten. I only want to write novels. This book covers all the bases, and is a quick how-to guide on getting started.

[Tiffany · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book has some great insight. If a person is interested in writing this is a must read.

[Corbin · Rating 2 out of 5]

Great book,inspirational and highly reccommended

[Petite · Rating 4 out of 5]

Interesting points that will be very helpful in my writing.

[Mmdnick · Rating 2 out of 5]

خیلی پراکنده بود اگه تو یه حوزه تمرکز میکرد بهتر بود. بیشتر یه کتاب رفرنسه
در کل زیاد جالب نیس

[Vetr · Rating 4 out of 5]

بنظرم برای کسی که تازه میخواد نویسندگی رو شروع کنه کتاب خوبیه و در رابطه با همه مباحث توضیح داده شده و مخاطب بعد از خوندنش می‌تونه تصمیم بگیره که بطور تخصصی به چه موضاعاتی بپردازه
