Hilarious, heartwarming, and helpful

I love how Linda was able to teach me so much about writing and publishing without me even realizing it. The heartfelt stories and silly anecdotes were so entertaining that I would forget Beautiful Writers is an instructional book, Then the sections of note-scribbling advice from bestsellers would bring me back down to earth. Such a great balance.

And to top it off, she’s also a surprisingly talented narrator. She’s engaging, energetic, and passionate. No wonder she has a wildly popular podcast. Thank you for this book, Linda!

A Transformative Journey Through Words

"Beautiful Writers" by Linda is more than just a book; it's an invitation into the heart and mind of an extraordinary woman who translates her life experiences into wisdom and inspiration. From the moment I started reading, I was captivated by her ability to turn personal stories into universal lessons that resonate deeply.

What sets Linda apart is not only the wealth of knowledge she shares but also the way she paints a vivid picture of growth, struggle, and triumph. As someone who values the transformative power of books, I found myself profoundly impacted by her insights. The experiences she weaves into her writing are more than mere anecdotes—they are stepping stones toward personal change.

For me, this book felt like a journey I was meant to take, one that challenged my perceptions and allowed me to imagine how these lessons could change my own life. Linda’s authenticity shines through every page, making you feel like you’ve known her for years.

Her writing has a unique ability to connect with readers on a personal level, making "Beautiful Writers" not just a read, but an experience. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking not only knowledge but the inspiration to live more fully. Linda truly deserves recognition as one of the best writers of our time, and this book is a testament to her remarkable gift.

It's finally here! Such a fun listen... ❤️⭐️

Linda Sivertsen's one of my favorite authors and podcasters and I've been waiting for this audiobook since falling in love with her Beautiful Writers book last year. While I love hearing the celeb authors on her show, the voice actors on this audiobook do a beautiful job. Linda's voice, too, instantly calms like it does on her pod. Her stories are riveting--the memoir parts should be a Netflix TV show. And the writing advice is the best you'll find anywhere. Bravo!

Ready to write? Read/listen to this book first!

Linda Sivertsen's Beautiful Writers is an essential resource for anyone who wants to improve their writing or dreams of writing a book.

Linda masterfully braids her personal stories as a writer with tips from authors such as Cheryl Strayed, Dani Shapiro, Anne Lamott, Jenny Lawson, Tom Hanks and Elizabeth Gilbert among fifty-six others.

What makes this stand out from other books about writing is Linda’s evocative memoir writing. It’s magical.

I’d pair this book with a Californian Sauvignon Blanc, which is zesty and refreshing, much like Linda’s take on writing.

Score: 99 points out of 100.
