Helpful hints for all writers.
As an aspiring writer this book is a lifesaver for me. I love it and find it so helpful with my writing. I don't know how I managed without it. I highly recommend it if you are serious about writing.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Useful writing tool
Its purpose is simply to provide ideas and examples of behaviours and motivations associated with different emotions. A writing aid and this is what it does. It is a tool that gives ideas rather than a dictionary that gives answers.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
