It's great if you're looking for tips on structure or how to tell a story. It's direct and clean, Pressfield tells everything based on his career as an advertiser, a screenplay writer, a fiction and nonfiction writer and even as a self help writer. I think this can be helpful for people who spent a lot of their time doing experimental shit and trying to be authentic and is getting nowhere. It's a punch in your ego's face. On the other hand, he doesn't talk about prose itself, so if you're looking for style tips, this isn't for you. Again, he gives really straight forward and useful concepts for you to entertain your readers (that's what you want, right?). It's definetely worth a read.

I'm not.

It's "authentic" enough for me, whatever the fuck that's even supposed to mean.

>It's a punch in your ego's face.

You mean like every other sanctimonious hack who wants to dole out the same banal platitudes about how you should feel worthless unless you write as though it was a construction job?

Thanks but no thanks. It sounds godawful.
