Writing from Life is a guided writing program that will empower any woman to pick up a pen and chart the geography of her unique and fascinating life. Maintaining a profound respect for each woman's personal narrative, author Susan Wittig Albert leads us inward, inspiring us to tell our own soul's story, chapter by chapter.
With exercises, meditations, and examples from women's writings, Writing from Life invites us to put into words the parts of life that often leave us speechless: the loss of love; the birth of a child; the devastation of illness; the exhilaration of work; the unfinished business that haunts us when a parent dies. Whether you're an experienced writer or someone whose jottings have been limited to vacation postcards or business memos, this book will give you the practical tools you need to get it all on paper. At once pragmatic and spiritual, lyrical and down-to-earth, Writing from Life will convince you that every woman's life is a life worth writing.
NOTE: Writing From Life is no longer in print. Used copies are available through the online bookstores. Meanwhile, Susan is working on a similar text that will be available through the Story Circle Network. Stay tuned!]
