Bird By Bird Reading 2
I have now come to expect great things from this book. I found it very interesting when she described how to begin writing. She described exactly what happens whenever I try to write. I never feel that any of my writings are any good and often do find myself destroying them upon completion of a few sentences. I think that going through memories often becomes a great way to get the creative juices flowing, I'm excited that she wrote about that. It feels like I might actually be doing something right.

Good comment--Part of why I think Lamott is so helpful is that she advocates letting those pieces accumulate instead of throwing everything away if it doesn't seem finished yet.
