Best little motivation book ever

Just finished reading Inspiration & Motivation ... I shouldn't say finished, because I will be re-reading and referring to it often. It makes me feel good about what I have written, and anxious to write what I have not as yet written. I will recommend this little gem to all my writer friends. Susan LeGree, Author

Little bits of inspiration for writers of every kind

Writing is a solitary business. Just you and the computer screen or blank paper. Yes, you can get feedback from friends and colleagues - but first you have to write something worth reading and often that is an uphill struggle. This little book is a compendium of inspirational bits and pieces. They're little fragments of inspiration or how-tos. Almost all are practical: "The harder one works at writing, the more often the muse visits." In other words, keep writing and the ideas will keep flowing. Don't write and dry up. For days when you're feeling down and can't going, even a cliche can be a spur to action: "Sit down. Write a sentence. Now write another sentence. Write as many as you need until the good stuff comes." I should tatoo that one to the inside of my eyelid. Overall, a little book that helps crank the engine of creativity. Nice to keep around.
