This book is a classic and deserves that status. Written for more than just writers, it could be an inspiration for artists of any kind trying to get to the essential of something that is real and worth expressing, or just for anyone struggling with direction. It forces you to ask yourself just what it is you are trying to accomplish and whether you have an honest and simple enough attitude to let the work speak for itself through you. Well worth the price, and something you could come back to time and again to get regrounded.
