Shut up and write the book is a comprehensive breakdown on how to write a book. It covers everything from how to come up with ideas, worldbuilding, and character creation, through a full breakdown of the common story beats, and even how to approach self and professional edits.
It covers choosing tense and point of view, it addresses subplots and pacing, and all of it is written in Jenna's familiar and sassy tone that anyone who has seen her youtube videos would be familiar with. And yet, I was left feeling... just a little despondent. With the caveat that I don't read many non-fiction books, those I do pick up tend to be related to writing. I just don't know what I expected from this except... more.
