This inspirational guide for aspiring and experienced writers was
originally published in 1997. Written in a friendly, hopeful, and gently
humorous tone, it focuses on the creative process and emotional ups and
downs of the creative life, providing insights into how to persist in
the face of rejection, frustration, feelings of inadequacy, lack of
support from loved ones, and more. It also offers practical how-to
advice, from organizing your time so you actually sit down and write to
reading as a writer.
This ebook's rerelease of The Writer's Survival Guide includes a new
introduction that discusses the origins of the book and how, in spite of
the many changes in publishing and technology, it remains relevant
today.
