Deserves a spot on any writer's bookshelf

Sometimes, coming up with a clever turn of phrase is harder than picking up a greased watermelon in a swimming pool. That's why I got a copy of this highly entertaining and inspiring book. It's full of interesting, funny and sometimes bizarre similes that always get my brain going like a lawnmower on a downhill slope.
