Review: 

First of all, I found the title Robot Coconut Trees very curious and the first part of the book explains its origin. And I have to say that it is truly creative!

 

In this book, Kelsey Horton gives great creativity exercises, advices and tips for those who want to become recognized writers but are quite afraid to share with the world their writings. The author also tells her own experience of when she first disbelieved her dreams but then struggled to achieve her main goal.

 

In my opinion, this is also a useful book for bloggers (like me) and those who have writing as an important mean of communication. Sometimes we want to write something down but we lack of ideas; this book really helps us to unblock our brain and heart!

 

I loved reading this book because I felt like Kelsey Horton was by my side encouraging me to do what I love! I love writing. Maybe writing a book is not on my plans, but I created my blog also because I love writing and knowing that people read what I share with them.

 

After reading Robot Coconut Trees, I visited Kelsey Horton's website and I'm sure I'll follow her work and writings!
