if you are a pantser this book is for you!

I picked this book up on a whim, along with the audio portion of it.

This is a book about how to write faster, and in this one he advocates not having an outline. this is fine, because everyone is different. I personally think that as a writer you need to find your own way, writing with an outline or without.

The author has some useful tips for addressing certain things when you hit problems with writing. I think the favorite one that I found was having scrivener for iOS. I do not have a phone that would support that right now. But if you do I think you should try it.

I'm not a fan of some other techniques - he's very much about "the universe" and such - but that's his walk.

I think everyone can find something interesting.

for example - he talked about fear and some of the of the ones he faces (like rejection - I can relate) and how to cope. The best thing he says, you can't defeat fear, just cope with it (paraphrasing).

The narrator was friendly and had a great cadence. So I hope this author uses him again.

I do recommend this book.

A Must-Read for Aspiring Professionals

I found this book very helpful regarding harnessing the power of the subconscious. Its inspired me to research this topic futher.

A must have for any starting author

Not only is this a fantastic book for any starting or even veteran author but this audio version is so well narrated. love it!

Not much substance

The narrator was really good and book was easy to listen to, it flowed nicely and the author is likeable. There just wasn't much advice other than write as much as you can, whenever, wherever and however you can, track your word count, don't be afraid or lazy, etc. You know, the usual. It's not a bad book by any means, but it doesn't really teach you what it promises to teach you. It really felt like a first draft and I thought it could have benefitted from a couple of more drafts, just to turn it up a knotch. There are other books out there that are better, more systematic and more helpful, at least to me. I recommend books by Chris Fox, Rachel Aaron, K.M. Weiland and James Scott Bell.

Excellent book well written

Lots of good ideas and techniques for writing quickly. M. L Ronn knows what he is talking about.
