Though it's not specifically about writing, I'm going to suggest Mindset by Carol Dweck as a motivational book.

'post office' and 'women' by Bukowski are phenomenal inspiration for any writer.

I love the verbal content of this video. The presenter is great, but seems angry.

She looks like she doesn't want to do this vid. Or like she's bored or mad.

She seems heavily coached to speak clearly, but she doesn't sound natural at all. That will come with more practice. I look forward to more videos from her as she is informative and very pretty.

@telomerase1978 Not really, I know what a lack of confidence looks like, I live it. Her body language, the way she speaks, she's not compfortable speaking infront of the camera.
