I read The Making Of A Writer for school and i wasn't expecting to enjoy it, but it was interesting and it held my attention. It's a quick read. I probably won't keep it or read it again just because i'm more interested in reading than writing. *Review written on October 4, 2014.*

I was hoping it would be a cheesy childish book that reflects it's name but it was merely disappointing. The pictures ...

The book was kinda boring throughout but the ending completely made up for any doubts I could've had in my mind about Joan Lowery Nixon. I've read 7 of her other books that were great!!
