The Getaway Car: A Practical Memoir About Writing and Life by Ann Patchett
informative
reflective
medium-paced
4.0
This was great! A super short memoir that goes behind the scenes of Ann Patchett's writing journey and process.
Definitely a must-read for any aspiring writer or any writer who feels stuck in a rut and is questioning their career path. Also a must-read for Ann Patchett fans — I'm not really an aspiring writer but I find books like this fascinating and it was cool to learn more about Ann's life and work.
Loved the mix of practical advice and personal stories. Some of the advice is applicable to being productive in general and with any creative endeavour.
At 45 pages, it's perfect if you're looking for a "read in one sitting" book! Not sure how easy it is to get your hands on it these days though.
