Build Your Best Writing Life: Essential Strategies for Personal Writing Success by Kristen Kieffer

5.0

The title ‘Build Your Best Writing Life’ is certainly relevant for this book. It represents a journey, from starting with remedies for the symptoms of creative skepticism and procrastination, through the discovery of what drives your writing, and finally to making the goals and a road-map to achieve personal success. The word ‘build’ in the title is the key. A foundation for writing is prepared, and each subsequent chapter adds information to construct the mindset and decision one needs to make to be successful.

Personally, I learned many of the early lessons the hard way. The middle of the book provided me with direction and solidified my understanding of my potential, and the final chapters have given me the ideas for the goals I want to pursue. I discovered much newfound self-awareness by doing the exercises. An excellent resource for both a new and seasoned writer. Five of five on Goodreads.
