This sounds like a very informative book with a plethora of knowledge. It’s exciting for authors to know the steps needed to get their work in the hands of the readers. I will have to check this book out. Great review.

Ray Hodgson's book is a lifeline for writers facing hurdles on their journey. 'Zen and the Art of Writing: Publish Your First Book' doesn't just recognize the common stumbling blocks like writer's block but offers tangible solutions. Hodgson's approach empowers potential writers, providing the know-how needed to overcome challenges and pursue their literary dreams.

Writing a book is nerve wrecking so I'm appreciative of the author including stress free methods that will make writing and brainstorming easier on the author. I cannot wait to read this book and explore what the author is offering to new and current writers.

You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.

As the review mentioned, this is certainly a unique approach to writing. One that uses meditation in the form of a branch of Buddhism, Zen Buddhism. I admire that the book focuses on the right state of mind, and having attempted to write myself, I can attest that it is, indeed, hard to write a book. Congratulations on the BOTD.

I also appreciate you including your opinion on areas that could be strengthened or perhaps included in a future book. It shows that you truly spent time reading,understanding and analyzing this book.

I have no intention to write and publish a book someday. However, as a copywriter, I think it will help me to some extent.

Zen And The Art of Writing

Is a very insightful read because it gives us the tools that we need in order to write a book. The author also gives tips on how to use meditation as a guide. Anyone wanting to write a book, this is definitely a great resource.

[Ika Apo]

I would absolutely love to read this book that teaches the art of writing and the hardships that come with it. I like that the author starts the book by talking about the great thinkers. It has to be interesting.

[Nganyi Humphrey]

This is a non-fiction book which guides the reader on how to write your book to the point of publishing and selling it. It further provides an insight into meditation.

[Chuks Ogechukwu Bianca]

An insightful book that provides a creative way of dealing with writer's block. It also talks about the 3Is of writing. Great read. Congrats on #BOTD

“Zen and the Art of Writing” by Ray Hodgson is a book about writing and getting your first book published. Hodgson begins with a review of great thinkers. There are probably millions of book writers that are still trying to get their first book published so a guide to help a writer accomplish this feat is wonderful. I have thought about writing a book but I have assumed it is too difficult to find a reputable publisher that I have not even tried. Information, inspiration and implementation are the three I’s to writing a good book. The owner of the Online Book Club has offered to help members write and publish a book and if I decide to do so I will definitely take Scott up on this offer. This is a well-written book that every member contemplating the writing of a book should read and follow his case study. I would like to write a book that would be very helpful to readers. Making money from the book would be less important than providing readers with a positive result from reading my book. Very good review.

[Leonie Vermaak]

This is just what I needed. I'm super excited to read this book as maybe this will push me to actually write my first novel. For some people I think it's comes naturally but for others it's a struggle to start if you don't have help. Thanks for a wonderful review.

[Enjani Matendeko]

I agree with the author that ideas come to your head when you are very relaxed. It has happened to me, and he seems to be talking from experience too. Writers will appreciate the content of this book.

[Francis Kapola]

Getting acquainted with the content of "The Protector" will undoubtedly engage the reader more deeply, fostering a richer understanding of the creative process outlined in the guide.
