BOOK REVIEW : STORY GENIUS

Image
Story genius review book is written by Lisa Cron . It is one of the best books for creative writing . I bought the book from E-Commerce site. I read the book in almost eighteen hours, not continuous. I found the book very interesting. It gives us so many new information. Though, there are so many things written again and again. I found the screen cards for writing a craft. There is step by step guide to write your novel . We read about the ways most of the writers failed to find readers. I found the language of the book quiet tough so it took more time to read and understand. I do not want to skip any new thing described in the book, so I read the things again and again. I also read its summary on internet to get all the things to understood. I love the books which teach us something and self help books . I always remember the quote for creative writing "Read a lot and write a lot" by Stephen king if you want to be a writer. In the book I like the quotations written in ...
