i really enjoyed the different metaphors used in this book. there are some writing advices that i really enjoyed and most definitely will apply into my own writing practices. however, as goes with any non-fiction books like this, take everything with a grain of salt. what works for them might not work for you. writing is a never ending process of working on your craft.

also there were moments that completely throw me off and just made me errr... yeah this was definitely published in the 90s.

(like... what even is a "geishalike" smile?)
