Synopsis

Book by Ueland Brenda

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

For most, the hardest part of writing is overcoming the mountain of self-denial that weighs upon the spirit, always threatening to extinguish those first small embers of ambition. Brenda Ueland, a writer and teacher, devotes most of her book--published back in 1938, before everyone and their goldfish got their MFA's in creative writing--to these matters of the writer's heart. Still, the real gift of the book is Ueland herself: She liked to write, she didn't care what anyone thought, and she had a great sense of humor. You're simply happy to hang out with her.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

In her 93 remarkable years, Brenda Ueland published six million words. She said she had two rules she followed absolutely: to tell the truth and not to do anything she didn't want to do. Her integrity shines throughout her bestselling classic on teh process of writing - a book that has inspired thousands to discover, or rediscover, their own creativity. Carl Sandburg called it """"the best book ever written about how to write.
