Personal Reviews

“Imagine if a story you read has had the power to change your life, then try to imagine that power lies at the source of that creation. I want you to have that power.”

I have been a fan of Priya Kumar’s works. One of the big reasons is there are always lil gifts along with her books. This time, I got a cute bookmark with a Priya Kumar quote on it, I fancy these things a lot. 

Every word that she writes carries weight and I like her self-help and motivational books. “How to write a book in 8 days” was a book I was quite looking forward to as almost every reader often dreams of writing their own book one day. The book deals with many reality checks, the excuses we look to write, or the genuine problems that come up while thinking of ideas and writing them down. 

I kind of believe I can only write a book when my hair turns gray but her book makes me want to quit my job and sit with my journal right away. My point is if you are someone who has a story in their head and is just waiting for that push to start scribbling your words, this is the book you need. Also, if you are someone who often daydreams of stories, but needs to figure out how the plot characters, dialogues, and everything comes together. 

The author has added a lot of her personal experiences- she actually wrote the book in 8 days! What bothers me a bit is it is not necessary for everyone to have that same pace. Someone might take two to three years to complete the book as they have responsibilities or maybe they don’t have a favorable situation.

All things said I like the flow of the book, the language is lucid and easy, and the points that she has highlighted are easy to comprehend. Being a marketeer myself, I find the book marketing strategies that she has discussed pretty useful and beneficial. 

Go ahead and read this book if you’re looking to pen down your first or next bestseller!
