From Where You Dream: The Process of Writing Fiction by Robert Olen Butler

3.0

I gave this three stars because the first few chapters were great, but somewhere in the middle he kind of lost me. The way he describes his writing process and what he does with it is amazing, but he lost me after that. He also lost me when he started going on about the differences between 'literary' authors and 'genre' authors. I understand there is a difference between the genres themselves, but his reasoning was a little too pretentious for my taste.

But, like I said, the first few chapters were awesome, and perhaps someone else will appreciate the latter half more than I did.
