An extremely encouraging read for writers at all stages of their careers. I've been writing for most of my life and still found it a motivation to keep going and to always aim to improve. Also, interesting info on what editors are looking for as most of the time, you hear what the agents are looking for and editors don't get a mention.Definitely a book to refer to for a kick up in the bum whenever you need it.
This is one of the best books I’ve read on writing. Very thorough content concerning all aspects of the writing life including the endeavors to find an agent and get published. Paula Munier’s voice is one that is supportive, motivating, and honest. Her book offers many helpful resources, words by other authors, and writing practices with significant ideas to sit with as one writes with quiet hands. This is definitely a book to read slowly to digest the content. I look forward to opening this boo...
This is a book to savor. It is a guiding light in my new foray (thank you, Wordle) into mystery fiction writing, after non-fiction academic work. It is inspiring, practical and helpful in all the right ways and at all the right moments. My copy is now dog eared, with personal notes written from the inside cover to the last page.

If you are a writer, read this. You won't regret it.
I forgot what a great craft book this was until I was promoted to share some of my highlights. Feel free to browse and then rush out and buy—and read!

Shake it up by getting into this excellent writer glow-up. And yes, Paula, I still say your publisher is missing out by not making these available on audio. Excellent!
Great book. I will return to it, as the exercises are useful and the good-humoured, workman-like tone makes it easy and enjoyable to approach and learn from. Thank you Paula.
"It was ok" pretty much sums it up. Underwhelming. It's not bad, but it's rather dry in a lot of places, and doesn't really have a new set of information that you can't find anywhere else, or even a new perspective, which I was hoping for based on the title.It's ironic that the subtitle is "how to shape your writing to resonate with readers," because of all the instructional books on writing I've gone through, this one resonated with me least. In fact, maybe my underwhelm is because the title wa...
For someone who is a writer in the blog space, trying to create in the book arena, "Writing with Quiet Hands" is very useful for both helping the creation process, and looking at the business side of writing. I am looking forward to continuing the lessons learned in the book .
