This is a quick read-at-one-sitting title that is enjoyable and inspirational. The title could be a bit misleading; it's not a book of writing tips, there's no 'toolbox' here as in Stephen king's excellent On Writing. It's more of a pep talk - for those that have been thinking about writing a book for years and still keep coming up with excuses and for those like me who still, after several books, tend to hit the occasional wall and have trouble getting back into the writing flow again.The author is against procrastination, part of the 'write it first then get it right brigade'.I tend to think he has some very good points on this score and, whilst I don't find that stream of consciousness thing particularly easy, it has to be better than agonising over one sentence for a week!This book is quite repetitive and I would usually complain about that but at the end I wondered if that was just a way of hammering home the important message and it probably was.
