Summary: Some good advice but not polished
Comment: Marion Winik writes personal essays that are funny and meaningful and I was really looking forward to hearing what she had to say on writing. She does have some good advice but this is a live recording of a writer's workshop and she has only a loose outline of what she wants to say. If you can stand the 6,056 times she says "you know" and "or something," and if it doesn't bother you that she laughs at her own essays as she reads them, then this is for you. I was disappointed that her class wasn't better thought out and very irritated that her often wonderful essays were read so badly by her. (I just can't stand the nose laugh she does every few sentences.) I also lost sympathy with her the more she spoke about her rather indulged upbringing that included drug addiction. If you can get this for less than full price it might be worth a listen.
