Book Review : How to be a writer by Ruskin Bond

Ruskin Bond is a renowned figure in the world of literature who began his writing journey in childhood. He is best known for his children's books and has authored over 70 works. His contributions have been recognized by the Indian government for their significance. When I first started exploring the idea of writing, I discovered many resources. Among them, I found this book, which greatly helped me improve my writing. In this article, I will review and highlight some key insights and tips that can benefit new writers.



Ruskin Bond expresses a deep love for writing, calling it his favorite activity and greatest pleasure. He structures his day to ensure time for writing, whether it's a poem, a paragraph, an essay, or part of a longer story—not just because it's his profession, but because of his passion. He believes in a clear conception of ideas, with words flowing naturally like a stream of clear water, ideally a mountain stream, to ensure simplicity and clarity in writing.

The Important thing is to keep writing, observing, listening and paying attention to the beauty of words and their arrangement.

He recommends a few tips and techniques for becoming a writer, and even claims to have developed these tips and techniques himself, as outlined below:

  • A love of books
  • A love of language
  • A love of life
  • An observant eye
  • A good memory
  • Enthusiasm
  • Optimism
  • Persistence

According to Ruskin Bond, to be a good and successful writer, originality is essential. He emphasizes that being original is everything. As per his advice, key qualities a writer must possess include intelligence, sensitivity, imagination, and an observant nature.

Ruskin Bond always emphasizes reading extensively before writing and recommends choosing a genre you are comfortable with. He advises aspiring writers to be consistent and not give up easily. Additionally, he stresses that young writers must be patient in getting their work published and should focus on improving their writing skills.
