Susan Shapiro's Great Book

Only as Good as Your Word
by Susan Shapiro has the sub-heading,
‘Writing Lessons From My Favorite Literary Gurus’
but it’s more like LIFE LESSONS.
Everyone can learn from Shapiro’s experiences and mentors and she shares these tales and thoughts and feelings with a generosity of spirit and an authentic voice.
In fact, you feel like you are sitting around sharing coffee with Shapiro while you read these pages.
Her stories are very New York, and very fun.
A couple of my favorite lines are,
“Remember, a plumber never gets plumber’s block.” and
“But surrounding yourself with ass-kissers could turn you into Michael Jackson.”

Words to write by, and words to live by.

This is a great read, and Shapiro has a such a style and voice,
this book would be fun to read on the couch or on the beach this summer….

It’s for writers, but it’s really for everybody.

It’s definitely worth your time!
