"""This is the book I wish I'd had before I started writing my first novel. I know it sounds like a cliche but it really is a must have guide for anyone who wants to write. It has great advice for inspiration. Of particular importance is the section on getting children to write, and how to encourage young minds. Any parent of a child that wants to write should have this book. Simple tips, like the 'word jar' to hold words to be taken out and used as prompts to write a story, or the 'long word list' for when a child learns a new word. Over the course of ten chapters SJ Banham gives advice on just about every aspect of writing, from inspiration to publication. There are creative writing exercises for all ages, advice on fiction, non-fiction, poetry, legacy writing, et al. All of which are delivered with an authorial friendly voice. A passage early on struck a chord with me. 'I had heard from my careers officer that to be a writer you must have lots of qualifications and money. I had neither. I often wonder how many young minds are thrown off their intended path because of one person's ill-conceived thoughts influencing them'. So often we are told what we can't do, well, this book will tell you that you can do it. So what are you waiting for? Get the book and unleash the author in you.""--TG Trouper, author"
