( ) This is a wonderful book for any writer. It focuses on craft, such as the art of the sentence, the sounds of words, the art of observation, the practice of artistic productivity, and much more. When I began the opening sections on "Daily Writing" and "Gathering Words," they made me WANT to write more and write better. The book is well-titled, because the thoughtful tone and exercises are like having a Mentor helping you. Instead of classifying writers as "beginning" or "experienced," Ms. Long wants everyone to aspire to be a "virtuoso" writer. I have read a lot of books on writing, and "The Writer's Portable Mentor" is the best one I've found so far. Highly recommended. Priscilla Long's new book is the best book on the writing craft that I have read. When I feel stuck, I turn to her book for inspiration. When I'm revising, I turn to the exercises that permeate the book to lift my work to another level. She suggests using current work when trying the exercise--an efficient way of working with her ideas and furthering one's piece. When I don't know what to write next, I turn to page 19 to get a jump start on an essay or story. There is no other book like it--just look at the Contents page to get an idea of what she covers in "The Writer's Portable Mentor." inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
