A reissue of a classic work published in 1934 on writing and the
creative process, Becoming a Writer recaptures the excitement of
Dorothea Brande's creative writing classroom of the 1920s. Decades
before brain research "discovered" the role of the right and left brain
in all human endeavor, Dorothea Brande was teaching students how to see
again, how to hold their minds still, how to call forth the inner
writer.
