Guidance on life as much as writing
A book that should be on everyone’s shelf. The audible version, narrated by the author her self, includes Natalie speaking candidly about what she wrote in bones at the end of each chapter, sometimes in between. What she’s learned, how she writes and practices now. It’s a rare opportunity to hear an author’s evolution from their own mouth. Plus a 1hr open dialogue at the end. A brilliant addition to an already brilliant book.

delightful
listening to the author read and reflect on a book she wrote 20 years ago was refreshing. Still as relevant as it was then.

"Just be a noodle..."
The more I listen, the more I relax into Natalie's Slow, her gearing down, gathering in of the consciousness, abandoning competition and goal-oriented, driven producing -- and slowing back down to the writing for the love of it, writing for the deep enjoyment of the flow ❤

Helped me trust myself
Loved it. Listened to it while going for walks. It helped me go deeper into the writing process of finding and trusting my voice and creativity. Would highly recommend.

Inspiring
I paused to re-listen to many sections of this. I will listen to it again for sure. I've used some of this in my writing practice without realizing it, and now I will do so consciously.

Apt Writer Advice to Better Appreciate the Process
A rather Zen look at the writers process with a mindset known more to be prevalent in the late 60s/70s. It would have been innovative in its time. It will however be a good reminder for newer writers to slow down and not looking at writing as a peer-pressure induced race, but the creation of art which has its own time schedule.
