Writers—and anyone with an artistic temperament—will find inspiration and comfort in these pages. Offering lessons learned over twenty years of teaching and writing, Shapiro shares her own revealing insights to weave an indispensable almanac for modern writers.

Just coming to the end of this. There are many great books on writing/ the writing life - Writing down the bones, Big Magic... and this is up there in the cannon. Great to have on audible, this lovely 'companion' speaking wisdom and support in my ear. I stretched out the experience as long as I could, only listening to a few minutes each morning to start my day on a good foundation - that's how good this was. highly recommended!
