Writing Down the Bones - reading

Finished "Writing Down the Bones" by Natalie Goldberg. A book about writing where each "chapter" is, coincidentally, about two pages long. "Coincidentally" because I recently finished "The Girl with All the Gifts," which also had a handful of chapters that were 1-2 pages each. 

The author seems to prefer writing poetry, but she had some useful advice for people writing novels as well. She related experiences from her life, from her Zen meditation, and memorable stories from the writers she came into contact with while she wrote this. I thought it enjoyable and educational. Also, it's a relatively quick read you can take anywhere with you. Finish a chapter while you're standing in line! In that way it was reminiscent of the Army's "smart book."
