Recommended without reservation....

Writing Without the Muse is based on the premise that writers can't wait for Inspiration with a capital "I." Instead, we have to believe that "there is no such thing as having nothing to say." This is an appealing volume, slim, unintimidating, and, yes, quietly inspiring. The exercises work.
