Hey guys. It's Adventure Van here with a blog about Bird By Bird, a book written by Anne Lamott. This is a book about writing stories in a good, substantial way for both fiction and non-fiction. It's short, but packed with information that relates just barely to the subject at hand. All of the explanations for writing makes little to no sense without actually having put it into practice. However, it has some really solid bits of advice and has no qualms about bashing misconceptions people may have about writers, and writers have about themselves. It's not a book for those with fantasies about writing, but it has all the tools for those who are actually willing to risk writing. I feel as though it'll increase in importance more and more as the internet allows everyone fairly equal access to writing materials.
Adventure Van, humming.
