5.0 out of 5 stars write with creativity not with genre restrictions, November 15, 2005

Merrifield Winters (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Writing From the Inner Self (Paperback)

There is one thing that I find hard to deal with in the current market of how to write (SF, Fantasy, romance, mystery, and etcetera). The genre how to books only talk about the markets and the money. This book offers genuine advice on good creative writing.

The exercises in this book really cause the reader to look inside themselves to develop a unique writing style. This was especially useful to me because I think all of her exercises help the writer develop a voice and possibly avoid writer's block on a regular basis.

Harris is a wonderful teacher and I am sure that her ideas can help anyone who wishes it to generate more imagination in their writing. This is what makes writing fun and I am glad I have the book
