This Creative Life: A Handbook for Writers (eBook, ePUB)
There are a lot of books about writing out there. If you're like most writers, you've read them all. But learning how to write (and organize and outline and plot and edit and save the cat and market a breakout book) is one thing. Making and living a sustainable creative life in the face of...everything...is an entirely different matter. To know how to do that, we need to take a look at what goes on between the lines of our lives as writers so that we can live them with maybe a little more thought and intention--no matter the many interior and exterior obstacles that can threaten to derail our purpose. Sara Zarr draws on her fifteen-year publishing career (nine books and counting) and experience as a speaker, teacher, mentor, and podcast host to this collection of hard-won insights about what it means not to just write (and perchance to publish), but to be a writer.- Shop: buecher

In this WMG Writer's Guide, international best-selling author Kristine Kathryn Rusch discusses the destructive ways peer workshops and the quest for perfection derail many writers' careers.

She has owned several businesses, and has worked for herself for more than 30 years. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Julie Eickhoff.
