This book is part of my creative writing collection.
I always revisit them.

Though I write less often at the moment, they help provide possibilities.
Different takes on writing give us ideas and starting points.
Words and writing take us places we never imagined, not always good places, but that is part of the learning process.

Lots of fun to be had following the exercises or just choosing them randomly.
Good tool for journaling or any creative activity.

This book is *amazing*, the best writing book I have ever read- Brigid Lowry's style is fun and engaging and her excercises (the TONS of them) are all so so good. Poetry, stories and bits are scattered throughout and you'll fall in love. She also covers TONS of topics, from notebooks to plot, from lists to food... amazing.

It really helped me find topics to write about. The way Brigid Lowry writes this makes it easy to understand and to use in real writing.

Not exactly your sophisticated technical writing how-to book, but it's a good place to start without being overwhelmed if you want to start out with writing. I especially liked the writing exercises featured in the book; it definitely enables you to start writing interesting material and get started with creative writing, especially if you haven't tried it before. A fun read for me, and it could definitely work for writers of all ages!
