Synopsis

If you're looking for a book that will help you celebrate and inspire writing at home, then NURTURING THE WRITE RELATIONSHIP is a must have! In this creative piece, you won't find formal instructions on the nuts and bolts of teaching writing, but instead you'll find valuable insight on the hows and whys of writing! Wonderfully written by Mary Ann Froehlich, NURTURING THE WRITE RELATIONSHIP will draw you into the magical world of writing from the heart in the safe place we call home. From the very beginning, Froehlich gives the reader insight into her own personal world of writing and encourages readers to stop reading at any given point so that they can start writing. She also inspires writers to keep trying, as she cites examples of famous authors who didn't experience instant success. The book is based on a homophone (words that sound the same but are spelled in various ways): . WRITE - Understand the importance and develop the use of the written word . RITE - Understand the importance of cultivating rituals in family life . RIGHT - Understand the importance of communication in developing right relationships Froehlich believes that the adventure of writing is lost when writing assignments are viewed as academic exercises. Instead, she introduces exercises for writers, such as journaling, letters, memoirs and more. Her "10 Principles for Effective Writing," similar to the Suzuki method of teaching music skills, is concise and intuitive. "If you only remember one statement from this book, let this be it: As a parent, you are your child's most influential writing mentor. You are the example." Froehlich expresses this concept about mentors throughout the book. With an approach that refuses to stereotype individuals' methods of writing, Froehlich encourages writers to express their God-given ability to use the power of words to deal with everything in life, from grief to celebration! In addition to giving creative advice on how to nurture writing within the home, Froehlich provides valuable resources for writing groups and teachers, including an excellent exercise for teachers to use in their classes with young writers that takes them through the entire publishing process from query letters to sales and marketing. Interspersed with quotes about writing, NURTURING THE WRITE RELATIONSHIP is a treasure for anyone who longs to write.
