Twenty authors write on how and why they write. This was a very interesting book. If you aspire to be a writer, this book could prove to be quite helpful. It seems many writers feel they must write to be fulfilled. There are many interesting facts about the authors included in this book. For instance, David Baldacci was a lawyer. Sue Grafton started out as a screenwriter before she wrote A is for Alibi. Sara Gruen struggled with writing Water for Elephants. She spent 4 months in a walk in closet to write, because she needed a dark, quiet room. Jodi Picoult writes because she has to, that is who she is. Picoult also wrote a Wonder Woman series from March to June 2007. At the end of each chapter, the authors give their personal tips for writing. This was a fun book if you are interested in writing fiction.
