"Crystal clear, bracing as ice water, Escaping Into the Open should
be read by all scribblers regardless of material success." --Rita Mae
Brown
Bestselling, award-winning novelist Elizabeth Berg knows a thing or two
about writing, having graced the world with wonderful works of fiction
including Talk Before Sleep, The Year of Pleasures, and the
acclaimed Oprah Book Club Selection, Open House. With Escaping Into
the Open, she offers an inspiring, eminently entertaining, and
delightfully practical handbook on the joys, challenges, and creative
possibilities inherent in the writing life. Now revised with new
material--a classic in the vein of Writing Down the Bones by Natalie
Goldberg and Anne Lamott's Bird by Bird--Elizabeth Berg's Escaping
Into the Open is an indispensable guide for any aspiring storyteller.
