The War of Art

Basically, a crazy guy writing paragraphs.

Still, I found it helpful--I could relate a lot to Pressfield, and I do think it's worth visiting.

I wish I would have read more reviews before deciding to read this one. This excerpt from another review describes the book perfectly - Reading this book is like fishing through a landfill site for diamonds; they're there, just buried under mountains of crap. The book is loaded with references to every religion under the Sun as well as a lot of angel and muse talk, as well as other superstitious nonsense. Also, as a professional in my field, I can say there was some advice that could be considered poor advice. I got very little from this book and I am uncertain how this ended up on my "to Read" shelf. Thankfully it is a short read. I got the impression the author had a lot more issues committing to doing actual work than I have ever had, based off his references to his prior work experience and his living in a van down by the river.
