The craft book I still trust

On Writing is two books in one and both of them work. The life story is better than it has any right to be. The craft part is simple: read a lot, write a lot, cut the stuff that is just you clearing your throat. I needed that again.

I do not agree with every rule. I also do not need to. If you write anything, even a review, this is still the one I would hand you before a YouTube guru.

The rare advice book that is also a good story. Open to any chapter.
