rebdhar's review
5.0
In Brooke Warner's book, she outlines all of the ways in which women writers in general face a more uphill battle than do men, from self-doubt due to society's conditioning, to getting past the gatekeepers in publishing, to getting reviews in prestigious outlets, to being confined to certain categories in a bookstore. This is all very helpful for women writers, as it reassures us that it isn't "all in our head." But Warner's book is so much more than this. It is a prescription for how to cultivate attitudes and actions to overcome these barriers. It is a reminder that the only way to move forward is to keep writing, that "brilliant and brave act of intimacy."

I had low expectations for this book, because I loved Green-Light Your Book, and so often, books that are fast follow-ups to successes seem rushed and lack substance. I was pleasantly surprised. Write On Sisters! was an easy read filled with interesting information and inspiration. It left me an even bigger fan of the author and more excited than ever to be a writer and publisher.
