...the book is by Patricia Highsmith. You may recognize her name...she's the author of "The Talented Mr. Ripley". So you can imagine how excited I was to get this book and read it. When I finished devouring the book, I set it down and stared at it. Didn't help me a bit! I was SO disappointed. Then I looked at the copyright date....1983! So much has changed in the writing field in 20+ years! While the book has some amusing ancedotes, IMHO, it isn't a "writing" book. I gained no insight, nor any inspiration.
Hey...anybody want a used book?

Uh, no. Got plenty of those "type" of books, thank you very much!Give yourself a pat on the back for actually reading the entire book!
I can't even get through what I've got! Can't you just read them and then pour it all into my brain. Please?
LOL, D....well, here's one less you need to read. I would NOT recommend this book to anyone! LOL
