Loved and identified with this romp through finding her voice and letting herself go where it takes her. Inspiring! This is intended for memoir writers, but I feel like the exercises at the end of each chapter would be helpful for any writer. A lot of your material is going to come from within and this book focuses on mining the hard-to-reach stuff. The stuff you don’t want to touch. The stuff you don’t want anyone to see. I got my copy at the library but if I ran across a copy at a bookstore I would definitely pick it up and I would read it again and do all the exercises. Theo Pauline Nestor is a memoir-writing teacher and author. I don't even remember what it was that made me to request this book, but I didn't know that it was about writing memoirs. I just knew it was about finding your voice. I was thinking more in the line of fiction, but this was okay. I really got me back to the practice of writing just for practice. Although, I am nothing like this woman, I enjoyed her story and could have just enjoyed it without doing the exercises. However, I did most of them, I feel I gained a lot of knowledge about myself, my style and my voice. I believe all writers or aspiring writers who are on Librarything should review every book they read as an exercise in writing their opinion. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
