 Rating: - I'm gonnabe a writer after reading this!I bought this book after reading the reviews on here because I have discovered recently that I have a really strong interest in writing. I'd always thought writing was for a particular sort of person, the very talented, super-creative sorts who have characters and plots falling out of their ears. This book helped me to see that writing is for anyone who has the desire to write and that if you fancy having a go you should go for it. The first few chapters had me laughing out loud with tears rolling down my face. It was such good fun, not a serious text book at all yet getting many serious points across. I wish I could write like that! I also enjoyed the input from wide ranges of other authors, agents and publishers that provided both balance and backup to the topics. I feel encouraged to have a go and I'm glad that I have read this at the very beginning of my adventure. Just enough inspiration at just the right time - if you think you might be interested in becoming a writer but are not sure what to do next, buy this book! Rating: - BrilliantBoth wonderfully entertaining and extremely helpful, this book is ideal for all people, from those of us who have just daydreamed about becoming a writer, to those of you who are already well on their way. Well written with an endearing personal touch it was perfect for me, still being at university a book on how to become a writer could easily have terrified me out of the profession forever! This book, however, inspired several of my friends and I to give writing a go. Each chapter is full of useful information sandwiched between Jane's own unpretentious and amusing life experiences as a writer; I would highly recommend it to all! Rating: - Real people with real lives....real writingLike every second house in every second street, I aspire to be published. I bought this book, initially because the reviews hinted at it being a wring book for the non-committed writer. And it is. But it's also for the absolutely dedicated, fanatical writer too. So who wins? Both parties as it turn out. This book delivers everything you'd want. A fun read, a hilarious read. A real book of realistic expectations. it doesn't promise to make you or me rich. It can't even promise break even. even alluding to permanent poverty and despair. However, it does demonstrate the best way to destroy your liver and family life. So that's fine by me too. A large glass if you please. Oh, and a keyboard to go.... Rating: - Realistic, helpful and amusingAt last a 'how to' book on writing that doesn't preach to its readers. Wenham-Jones' writing style is funny, making the book a page-turner anyway but, for me, it's the fact that her approach is totally down-to-earth, realistic and not too highbrow that makes it a winner. The author shares her own struggles trying to get fiction published and reminds you constantly that hardly anyone creates a masterpiece on their first attempt. Instead she gives all sorts of tips that I found both inspiring and useful, plus lots of useful contacts, websites and groups you can join for support. If you're serious about your writing, you won't regret buying this book. Rating: - Inspirational writingThis is a brilliant book. Helped inspire me to keep going with my novel. Great book for anyone trying to finish their novel or wants to have a go at writing.  Try searching the Internet for "Wannabe a Writer?" or Ebay for "Wannabe a Writer?".
