A(muse)ingly inspiring!

A(muse)ingly inspiring collection of prompts, and advice to free your creativity.

A fun to read book with suggestions that I plan to try, in the coming year, to spur my own writing.

"Writers Block Be-Gone!"

(To be read in the voice of an infomercial host...)

Attention all writers! Ever catch a nasty case of that pesky writer's block? Of course you have! Oh sure, the writing is smooth sailing today, you say, but what about tomorrow? Everyone, at some point or another, will hit a big rock that is, more likely than not, hard to heave out of your way.

Fear not!

"The Pocket Muse" is an instant cure for writer's block! Just open to this handsome/highly-portable book--yes, that's right, to ANY page--and an inspirational passage, writing advice, or even a picture will leap off these beautifully glossed pages and you will be instantly cured. And if not? Once again, fear not! Just flip to another page, people, there's something here for everyone!

(/Infomercial-Voice)

On a serious note, my fellow writers, this is a great little book. It's not a how-to-write, though. It's a book for people who DO write, who have already established or are READY to establish a writing life, and this book will help you with what you need to maintain that life. As I said before, not every idea or every page will help everyone, but there is indeed something that anyone and everyone will take out of the book as a whole. It's filled with so many differing ideas that it would be impossible not to benefit from the advice/push that this book gives you. As a writer myself, I highly recommend this book.

9/10

A good time

This book is good if you just need a writing exercise. I find it very useful when I have writers block. I can just flip through it and usually write about something completely off-topic, but it help me to clear my mind and relax. It's a good fun book.

Writing Ideas

In all honesty, I just basically scanned through this book. It did have some interesting 'prompts' that I pulled out for my own writing, but as writing ideas/prompts are all around us I doubt I would pay for a book that was basically just writing ideas. Although if you are that stuck that you need something to give you that push then there are some spark igniter's in this book.

Treat for writers.

Creative stimulation is what this book is about. Anyone who writes needs books like this on their shelves to grab when they get stuck or need new ideas or inspiration.

Random pictures, quotes, ideas, horoscopes, advice, tips, excercises and writing prompts are what you'll find here. It's a fun, interesting little book. There were many ideas that appealed to me that I'll definately try.

This is a book that you can read through or pick it up and randomly thumb thru until you find something that you feel like trying. Besides that, books like this are just great for writers to have because we get so involved with writing great things that we can forget the basic ordinary stuff that's important. Great gift idea for the writer in your life.
