'Lisa Goldman?s book is like the best of British new writing: it is personal, well-written, clearly thought out and resonant. Its advice is passionately felt but perfectly controlled. And its ideas sing and inspire. ' Aleks Sierz (critic and author of In Yer Face Theatre)
'Reading just one book about the craft or theory of playwriting is the worst thing a playwright can do - far worse than reading none. Lisa Goldman's book is an exception.' Fraser Grace (Convener of MPhil in Playwriting Studies, Birmingham University)
' Feisty, helpful, liberating stuff ' The Stage
' Full of sensible advice' Lyn Gardner (The Guardian)
