There's a mantra that real writers know but wannabe writers don’t. And the secret phrase is this:

NOBODY WANTS TO READ YOUR SH*T.

Recognizing this painful truth is the first step in the writer's transformation from amateur to professional.

From Chapter Four:

“When you understand that nobody wants to read your shit, you develop empathy. You acquire the skill that is indispensable to all artists and entrepreneurs—the ability to switch back and forth in your imagination from your own point of view as writer/painter/seller to the point of view of your reader/gallery-goer/customer. You learn to ask yourself with every sentence and every phrase: Is this interesting? Is it fun or challenging or inventive? Am I giving the reader enough? Is she bored? Is she following where I want to lead her?"

Good Advice for Writers

ByPeri Dwyer Worrellon 1 September 2016 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

After reading this, I feel like I know how to take my first draft and make it into a novel people will enjoy reading. Too many books aimed at fledgling writers are full of philosophizing and abstractions. This book is very clear and simple from a pro who's made mistakes and offers advice at avoiding making them yourself.

Excellent Writing Tips

ByKassandraon 11 February 2017 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

This was a great book about writing for writers. The author was so honest about the trials he went through to become a paid writer. The years of time he spent honing his craft were telling and lent to his credibility.

He shows us how to use many standard writing techniques though in unique ways. He explained how to use advertising techniques and movie script writing to thin out an amateur writer's flailing attempts and get to the meat of the meal.

I will keep this book around for reference mostly definitely.

Absolute Essential Conversation for Writing

ByEdon 22 October 2016 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

Pressfield's understanding for this topic is HIGHLY apparent in just how quick you will burn through this book (half your time will be spent subsearching and noting his straight to the point of disillusioning one from thinking just because you put words on paper means jack s*** to the world.

An invaluable quick no bulls*** collection of keystone lessons anyone can probably benefit from.

If these ideas are new to you, buy this book. Now. It hammers home principles that must be known.

Another Not to be Missed Instant Classic from Pressfield

Pressfield's discussions about writing are, I think, as powerful as his fiction. This one does not disappoint.
