Review of a Writing Handbook {Spilling Ink}

Writing is hard.

That’s the truth. Though it may be fun, it may be rewarding, you may love it more than you love anything else, it’s still really, really hard.

For starters, have you ever had writer’s block? Empty lines or a b l i n k i n g cursor on a blank page is enough to make me want to scream. Then there are the thoughts that creep into your head- is my writing really any good? is it possible that I could ever even be published? And that’s just the beginning! When it comes to writing, I’ll take all the help I can get.

A few years ago, I was in a school writing club and was given three writing handbooks- Spilling Ink, Rip the Page!, and Seize the Story. Today I’m going to be reviewing Spilling Ink because I found it very helpful and entertaining. It’s my hope that it can help you, too.
