Turn Not Pale Beloved Snail By Gayle Parks on Sep 12, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

This book is a must read for anyone who aspires to be a writer, is a writer, was a writer, or just likes a good book. The title of this book is Turn Not Pale, Beloved Snail: A Book About Writing Among Other Things. And that is exactly what it is; a book about how to write as well as how not to write and how to be real and honest in your writing. It's a book about being yourself because that is interesting too. Along with imparting this knowledge this book also tells a good story...or I should say...stories, about people and places and things and this is what makes this book so enjoyable to read. Unfortunately, this book is out of print so it might be a little harder to find. Check at your local library and also at Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble online.
