My writing craft books sit right next to my parenting books which sit right next to my perpetual self-doubt.

Bird by Bird is such a classic! And I'm intrigued to check out Matt Bell. I have so many favorite writing books...the three that come to mind are "The Art of Writing Slow" by Louise DeSalvo, and "The Writer's Portable Mentor" by Priscilla Long, and "The Perennial Seller" by Ryan Holiday!

I have to check out Matt Bell’s book. Thanks for that!

I’ve loved Jen Hilt’s Trope Thesaurus recently. It shows you how to create fresh, multi-layered stories using well-loved story devices.
