Never Say You Can't Survive: How to Get Through Hard Times by Making Up Stories by Charlie Jane Anders

4.0

My writing's been undergoing some upheaval and this was a lovely little find just to get my morale up. Some essays offer craft advice, others are pep talks, others help writers position themselves in the market and the world. Not everything was for me; Anders' voice is distinct and won't reach everyone, but this is certainly a book only she could write, and by her own criteria that makes it a success. Personally I had a great time and looked forward to picking this up on my walks and while doing chores. Anders offers a kind, friendly voice for writers figuring themselves out.
