Thanks for this review. I'm so glad ...Hi Dave,<br /><br />Thanks for this review. I'm so glad you enjoyed the book. Monkeys with Typewriters started out as a series of blog posts, which were in turn based on the 50+ interviews I carried out. Each blog post was meant to be a kind of self-contained vignette, so that's where the story-telling element comes in: I wanted to produce something that was entertaining, easy-to-read and not to prescriptive. <br /><br />You're completely right about resisting the temptation to analyse to death and come up with a Next Big Thing format or concept. In the end I did come away with a light framework (outlined by the six chapter headings), but I hope that's not too indigestible.<br /><br />Thanks so much for reading and appreciating!<br /><br />Jemima :)Jemima Gibbonshttp://www.monkeyswithtypewriters.comnoreply@blogger.com
