Writing Places: The Life Journey of a Writer and Teacher by William Zinsser
3.0
Just ok. Solid three stars.
I made the mistake of reading this at the same time I found his On Writing Well. Back and forth I go, and this one doesn't hold up as well as OWW.
It was hit and miss with me. Some of it was interesting but many times I had to mentally bring myself back to the book and rereading passages I found I wasn't really reading.
If you're only going to read one, read On Writing Well. I absolutely am loving that book and highlighting so much. This book seemed too technical to me.
