Let me start by saying, I rarely give full five-star reviews to anything. This book has earned it. Erin Brenner's guide is meticulous, thoughtful, encouraging, and detailed. She provides insight and information from everything from initial setup for ...more |

| Let me start by saying I truly and completely enjoyed this book. I made the mistake of reading it while my husband was asleep in bed next to me, and I had to run to the hills to not wake him up with my laughter. The tongue-in-cheek comments and bitin ...more | |

“We are not going to die."
Butters stared up at me, pale, his eyes terrified. "We're not?"
"No. And do you know why?" He shook his head. "Because Thomas is too pretty to die. And because I'm too stubborn to die." I hauled on the shirt even harder. "And most of all because tomorrow is Oktoberfest, Butters, and polka will never die.”
― Dead Beat

“If you only write when you’re inspired you may be a fairly decent poet, but you’ll never be a novelist because you’re going to have to make your word count today and those words aren’t going to wait for you whether you’re inspired or not.
You have to write when you’re not inspired. And you have to write the scenes that don’t inspire you. And the weird thing is that six months later, a year later, you’ll look back at them and you can’t remember which scenes you wrote when you were inspired and which scenes you just wrote because they had to be written next.
The process of writing can be magical. …Mostly it’s a process of putting one word after another.”

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
