How We Do It: Black Writers on Craft, Practice, and Skill by Jericho Brown, Darlene Taylor

4.0

How We Do It is a writing book far from other writers' books. As a Creative Writing Major, I'm bound to read many of them--and I have. Many of which I can't help but roll my eyes at.

How We Do It highlighted many perspectives of writing told wrong by White Authors and professors. So many of the tips I wrote down helped me with my writing. In this book, a mixture of essays and interviews helps the reader stay engaged. It hits many different topics and genres, from memoirs to poetry. Even if you're not a black author, I think this book has so many valuable things that can benefit you and your writing.
