This book is a fantastic addition to any writer's library. Whether you're just starting out and need a how-to book with simple steps or a veteran writer who wants to add to your collection of informative writing library, this book will satisfy you both.

I've been writing for nearly two decades, and enjoyed reading the The Miracle Morning for Writers. There are several tips that I intend to try and a few that I already have. It was interesting to learn about Life S.A.V.E.R.S. and I can see how beneficial such a program can be for a morning person.

I highly recommend this book for writers as well as the other books in this series. If this one is an example of the other Miracle Morning books, then I'm sure it will help anyone who is looking to change their life for the better.

Useful summary of the miracle morning with a refocusing for writers, plus other helpful advice on building writing routines for ideas generation and outlining as well as writing. A lot of the specific advice is geared towards the non-fiction self-publishing sector (although there is stuff for fic and for trad publishing, it's less detailed), but in terms of fitting stuff in and getting it done, this is gold dust.

I listened to the audiobook of The Miracle Morning for Writers, which I think was a mistake. While the performance was fine, there were issues with the recording (for example, Chapter 8 has the track repeating over itself, and there was no way to fix it, so I missed the end of that chapter). Additionally, there are lots of great resources mentioned, but it's just website names and tiny.url links read out loud. This is not helpful if you actually want to go back and review the content at the websites mentioned (especially since no clarity is given with spelling).

The content of the book, though, was interesting and helpful. There's a very heavy emphasis on self-publishing and self-marketing, so if you're interested in the more traditional publishing models, it's not as beneficial. There's still some info, but it's much more limited (and the author does point out that it's not their preferred method of publishing).

This book punched me in the face, got me to stop make excuses and get back to my writing projects. Not all of it was relevant or helpful to me personally, but the parts that were have really changed my outlook on my sleep habits, morning routine, and writing routine.
