Review of 'If you want to write' on 'Goodreads'

I have very mixed feelings about this book.

I find it has quite poorly aged, and feels like it was written in the victorian era, not between the two world wars.

The author keeps criticizing some writers to give more confidence to the reader, and then says critics are bad.

All the recommendations given are also only "feel good" things. Nothing tangible.
