Wild Mind Living the Writers Life

Natalie Goldberg, author of the bestselling    Writing Down The Bones, teaches a method    of writing that can take you beyond craft to the    true source of creative power: The mind that is    " raw, full of energy, alive and    hungry."

Here is compassionate, practical, and often    humorous advice about how to find time to write,     how to discover your personal style, how to make    sentences come alive, and how to overcome    procrastination and writer's block -- including more than    thirty provocative " Try this" exercises to    get your pen moving.

And here also    is a larger vision of the writer's task:     balancing daily responsibilities with a commitment to    writing; knowing when to take risks as a writer and a    human being; coming to terms with success and    failure and loss; and learning self-acceptance -- both    in life and art.

Wild    Mind will change your way of writing. It    may also change your life.
