Welcome to this week's edition of Feature of the Week.
I recently found myself looking through my writer's book shelf and I was drawn to Christina Katz's writing tips book, Writer Mama ~ How to Raise a Writing Career Alongside Your Kids. I purchased Ms. Katz's book back in 2007 as I embarked on my writing career when my daughters were 12 and 9. Wow, they are now 25 and 22!
I'm pleased to share my review of Ms. Katz's book from 2007 when I was a newbie to the writing world...
"WOW...fabulous book! Christina Katz has hit the mark.
I'm a children's/young adult writer and mother of two young daughter's. I have found this book to be a valuable resource for many topics that come your way in achieving your writing success.
This is one of the few books in my library that I have earmarked and highlighted throughout for reference and implementation and I refer to it constantly.
Writer Mama provides you with inspiration and guidance in your writing career in whatever genre you write for.
Ms. Katz gives you the feeling of your own private writing coach.
From Preparation and Research to Practicing your Craft, she has provided pointers and guidance that will help you, especially during the times of feeling isolated.
A must have for any writer."
I'd enjoy hearing what your favorite writing tips book is and why.
Thank you for your time and interest!
