No Plot? No Problem!: A Low-Stress, High-Velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days

Chris Baty
Not much here in the way of addressing serious craft issues and the way to solve them, and that is what I liked about this. It is by the guy who organizes NaNoWriMo, the write a book in thirty days guy, and it is mostly about trusting that you can do something so big and crazy and who the fuck cares how it turns out – go. And while the message isn’t new, it was something I needed to hear, as the summer approaches and the book I need to have more or less finished at the end of it looms all nasty-like. Just go. That’s good advice, even for people who are not in Nikes.
