    About RALPH'S Writer's Notebook
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2013*

The basic premise of this book is a good one--that keeping a writer's notebook can be an invaluable aid to germinating pieces of writing later.  I was disappointed in it, though, because in giving examples, Mr. Fletcher mostly drew on his own notebooks rather than those of any other writers, and furthermore, although I am very sorry to say this, I found about 85% of his notebook entries trite. (To give him the benefit of the doubt, this might be because he is a guy and evidently thunderstruck about the complexity of emotions--it doesn't necessarily have to do with the quality of his writing.)  Here's a typical example:This Christmas everyone's healthy.  The whole house is decorated.  So why all this tension in the family?  Where's it coming from?Needless to say, this is hardly a dazzling insight since by now this theme has been explored in books, articles, movies, and Hallmark cards.  Even this would be okay, though, if he were to include some non-trite creation that resulted from an entry like this, so that the point would be something like, "Flaubert wrote 'Madame Bovary' after he was struck by and made a notebook entry about 'the banality of lamb chops on a butcher's list'--and you can too."The book would have been far more effective if he had used mostly examples of notebook entries from great writers alongside whatever finished piece of writing resulted from them, perhaps retaining some version of the expository text that is currently between the examples. I wouldn't buy it again.

    Amazing Book on the Writer's Notebook
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2010*

Fletcher's book not only inspires the reader to write but gives the writer permission to use a writer's notebook in any way that will facilitate the flow of ideas for that particular writer.  He provides guidelines without stifling creativity.  I think this book is a must read for writers, students of writing, and teachers of writing.  He explains the notebook in such a way that the reader almost covets such a book in which to record meaningful thoughts, ideas, events, lists, etc.  Providing examples from his own notebook as well as other authors', he shows that the notebook isn't always neat and beautiful, that it is sometimes a safe place to fail at writing, and that it incubates thoughts and ideas for possible later evaluation and expansion. I, honestly, cannot say enough good things about this book!
