The Book Looks Fun but,....

From the photograph here..the book I received was NOT this one..which is fine. Just wanted to let you know. I got this book free so I am not going to be upset about the condition in which the book was in when I recieved it. The book was writing in by two different people..which is fine. I get that it was a cheap used book. The big problem I had with this book is that pages were ripped out of the book that kinda bugged me a lot. The book was labeled in "good" condition. The condition was WRONG..it was more like POOR condition for the ripped pages. I don't believe that RIPPED pages is a acceptable condition of any book marked for over 5 dollars or sold at all. As for the content it is a great book with fun writing exercises. I may just buy the updated book in the future. I do love this book store but, this was NOT a good exchange... Thank you.

Great Fun for This Writer!

As a non-fiction writer, it's all too easy for me to fall into a routine with my writing. I heard Bonnie speak at a writers' workshop recently, did one of the sample exercises, and was hooked. The exercises have been fun, and not only is it "forcing" me to be more creative, but it's also therapeutic, as I often seem to be writing about pet peeves or challenges on my mind. :) I like the fact that these are short exercises. And I also like writing in the book with a pen in a comfortable spot, instead of my fingers frantically flying across the keyboard. The exercises are definitely carrying over into my work as I think of new ways to write about ordinary topics. As a bonus, the pages are beautifully designed. A really unique book!

Surprisingly good

I must say, I've found that most books filled with 'creative' exercises and activities fall well short of the mark. Not this one, though. The activities here are actually interesting and, I'd guess, pretty darn effective! There's a whole year's worth of block-busters (even leap year, since there are 366 activities!).

Outstanding!

I'm an essayist and columnist, and sometimes I think, maybe I've already written about all the ideas I can come up with. That's where this book reigns supreme. All I do is open it, read an exercise or two, and I can skip over the weeks of deliberation about "what to write about next" - and get right to the writing. The book is a gold mine for anyone wanting to get over writers block. I highly, highly recommend it!

Playful exercises to encourage the right brain!

Writers seeking something more stimulating than a mere subject stimulation guide will welcome THE WRITE-BRAIN WORKBOOK: 366 EXERCISES TO LIBERATE YOUR WRITING. Playful and thought-provoking exercises range from finishing half-completed stories and filling in imagination blanks to using memories as a springboard to writing. THE WRITE-BRAIN WORKBOOK would initially seem inappropriate for libraries as it encourages filling in the blanks - but the color-coded pages make it somewhat difficult and lend to fill-ins elsewhere on white paper, and may make WRITE-BRAIN WORKBOOK a strong library lending tool.
