Very Inspiring Talks!!

I appreciate these many talks. Several of them spoke directly to me while the remaining encouraged me. I would recommend this for all creatives the many reminders and tools for overcoming lulls and rekindling passions for action.

Helpful, well-written and best of all, concise

This book is really helpful, well-written and best of all, concise. It pretty much combines and summarizes all the writing advice I've been reading in fragments from other books, articles, blog posts about how to become a better writer. I think I'm also gonna get the hard copy version of this book as well.

Do it for yourself.

I am a award winning short film maker. Won my award 17 years ago, never tried to do anything since. Why not?

Because I didn’t believe in myself and never heard or followed any advice given in this audiobook.

Is this going to change? Can’t say for sure because men tell tales and time tells truth.

Did I find the audiobook inspirational? Yes.
