Loved that book, and I'm not even remotely interested in writing.

Funny thing is, the two elements I remember the most from what I learned inside are at what could be considered both extreme of the "importance spectrum": double the s (the kids's toys) and don't write adjectives to give feelings and emotions when your task is to create them (if something is awesome, don't write "it's awesome", make it read/feel/look awesome).
