Title: Bird by Bird. Some instructions on Writing and Life
Review: I was happy to spot this book on amazon.com as I dream to become a very, inecredibly famous writer one day. The title also intrigued me as the play on words "bird by bird" in the title was a great idea. However, the book itself dissapointed me. How an experienced writer, someone who teaches other how to write could use the word "writing" 5-6 times on half of the page? There is also an overwhelming feeling of ...depression and sadness almost on every page...The author underlines it everywhere that writing is difficult and will bring nothing but unhappiness to the unwise person who will undertake such an dangerous and devastating task. It is a mixture of personal history (sad one) and some tips on writing.Unfortunately not my type of book.
