Review of 'Steering the craft' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Not a simple guide to writing or a step-by-step how to write a book guide, but really powerful. Le Guin shares a lot of her insight and experience, which is useful in itself, but the exercises are the heart of this. They're really good to focus on different skills writers need, and now I want to assemble a group to work on them together!
