I have never heard the author's podcast, but I could start because I found the suggestions he gave in the first part of the book, and mainly the writing propmt of the second part very interesting, even if I'm not a writer myself.

Non ho mai ascoltato il podcast di questo autore, ma potrei sempre iniziare perché, sia i suggerimenti della prima parte del libro, che le frasi iniziali per esercitarsi a scrivere della seconda parte, mi sembrano ben fatti ed interessanti, nonostante io non sia uno scrittore.

THANKS TO NETGALLEY FOR THE PREVIEW!

I should be writing, and this is a great book. It covers the main aspects of a novel, such as adding depth and life to characters and plenty of writing prompts to write about different view points. One of the best writing books I've read.
