Fletcher writes that “keeping a notebook may be the single best way to survive as a writer.” This book provides examples of situations in which Fletcher personally used his writer’s notebook for himself to cope, jot down story starters, write poems, let out rage or frustrations, or simply a place to unleash all that was on his mind. The purpose of this book is to allow people to see the value of having a writer’s notebook and allowing it to be “a quiet place to catch your breath and begin writing.” Fletcher provides samples from his own writer’s notebook throughout the book to provide a better example of what a writer’s notebook truly is.
