45 Writers on the Motives and Mysteries of their Craft
Models and Mentors
In this book of essays, over 40 successful writers in varied fields —poetry, science, the performing and visual arts, psychoanalysis, journalism, literature and more— explore what drives them to write, and to work at their craft.
Urges and Traumas
In contributions arranged under three headings— “Models and Mentors,†“Urges and Traumas,†and “Evidence and Experiencesâ€â€”each writer explores their personal understanding of writing as a psychological necessity. In varying ways, these candid, often emotional essays reveal a range of intimate, mysterious and unpredictable purposes and motivations.
Evidence and Experiences
Driven to Write provides fresh, practical, and imaginative approaches to literary art for aspiring and established writers alike.
