    Something Special This Way Comes
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2017*

Ray Bradbury’s book is actually a collection of previously published essays, pulled together under one roof. Some of the essays were originally book intros while others were published in other books or magazines.I purchased the book without reading the advertising blurb, seeking to learn secrets from one of my favorite authors. Alas, one of the most prolific and descriptive writers is extremely mundane in his advice to aspiring writers. In short, WORK, RELAXATION, DON’T THINK (caps are Mr. Bradbury’s). Obviously, work is the operative word here, and if you haven’t already been writing on a regular basis, he suggests one to two thousand words a day, every day, for the next twenty years. Have an initial goal of one short story a week, fifty-two a year. What does Mr. Bradbury believe this will bring about? “…I believe that eventually quantity will make for quality.”So if the book is not a teaching manual, why should one purchase it?Fans of Ray Bradbury will enjoy the intuitive methods he used to create his stories and books. It was interesting to see how everyday events could produce a spark that he would turn into something wonderful. Writers reading between the lines will learn that each writer must discover his own road to creativity. Mr. Bradbury can point in the right direction, but it is each prospective author’s duty to forge his or her own way.Along the way, the author shares with us his experiences as he worked his way into becoming a writer as well as the people who helped and shared and celebrated those success with him. Very enjoyable read. Five stars.

    This is a man who has spent his lifetime writing because it's what he loves to do. So naturally he has written a book about that
  

*by B***D on Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2017*

This book reminds me of another book that I enjoyed. That being "On Writing" by Stephen King. It's sort of funny. When I first read "On Writing" I knew nothing of Stephen King's writing, I had not yet read any of it. It was a strange thing to read an author's book on writing without ever having read any of that authors actual writing. Be that as it may, I really enjoyed it. And now I've done it again.This is, strangely enough, my first Ray Bradbury book. As was the case with King's book however, it didn't detract from the experience. You can sense from this book Bradbury's passion behind his writing, just as you could King's. This is a man who has spent his lifetime writing because it's what he loves to do. So naturally he has written a book about that writing. I have a feeling that, just like King, this little book will propel me forward into Bradbury's writing and that I have some wonderful future-experiences ahead of me.

    Collection of Essays
  

*by L***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2017*

Ray Bradbury will remain among my favorites. This collection of some of his essays share the themes of love of art, especially the art of writing, and memoir. His purpose is to inspire beginning writers by describing his method as he recounts the history of some of his major works. This reads beautifully and I'm lost with the author in his daydreams of revisiting Clarissa, Montague, Faber, and The Mechanical Hound (which he based on The Hound of The Baskervilles, he tells).  He emphasizes the importance of zest, passion, and the need to "be you" in finding your voice. At nine, he tore up his collection of Buck Rogers comics when taunting peers found him out. Heartbroken, he "sealed his own city" and resolved never to call prey to detractors. "If your friends don't support you, find new friends."  This early experience never left him as it is mentioned several times throughout. It is fortunate for the readers of this world that, by sheer exercise of optimism and belief in his talent (helped along the way by Mr. Electrical and others
