Victoria Ichizli-Bartels's Reviews > Time to Write: More Than 100 Professional Writers Reveal How to Fit Writing Into Your Busy Life

An absolute must read to any writer with a self-doubt, however short this self-doubt-phase might be.

The book is very well written. In a very light and reassuring way.

Yes, there are quite a few repetitions. But they are not out of place at all. They are rather showing the same ultimate recipe from different angles. "Writers write". No matter what. And the authors shows hundreds of possibilities how to come to the wish of writing and how to achieve writer's goals.

We perceive often the writers we love reading as divine with special powers. And although they do have special powers and talents, they are humans as we are. And this book helped me see that I have these special powers too. I have the ingredients in my knowledge and my life story and stories of those I know and met, that no one else has. Everyone is unique and me too.

I started writing my first novel this year in spring. And until reading this book I managed to write a bit less than 20000 words. That is quite good considering the full time job and family with a small child and a parent who needs assistance time to time.

But with inspiration found in this book, I managed to write more than 9000 words in just a bit more than a week, with the same amount of duties.

I am extremely grateful to Kelly L Stone for this book. It is enlightening and extremely inspiring!

You might be a very good writer before reading this book. But you will be a happy writer after reading it!
