Letters to a Young Writer: Some Practical and Philosophical Advice by Colum McCann

3.0

A lovely little book with some gorgeous writing and lots of excellent encouragement for creative people--writers specifically, but much of what McCann says is expandable to other artistic endeavors. I can't say I really *learned* anything, but I enjoyed the couple of hours it took to read this book, feeling I was in very good company. It's a little like sitting in a coffeehouse with a good, intelligent friend and hearing him expound on what he's been thinking about lately. Certainly a good investment of time.
