Synopsis

"And what is this writing, anyway, as a human activity or as a vocation, or as a profession, or as a hack job, or perhaps even as an art, and why do so many people feel compelled to do it?" - from On Writers and Writing, by Margaret Atwood

Writing for yourself is a wonderful way to explore personal creativity and whatever you want to write, a daily practice will enhance your skill and confidence.

Write Every Day is a brilliantly accessible book that demystifies the process and will help you see new ways to put pen to paper and discover your own unique writing style. Divided into 12 sections that range across voice, narrative, plot, structure, point of view, characterisation, dialogue, fiction, non-fiction, poetry, prose and memoir, Harriet Griffey shows you how to let go of any inhibitions, overcome writers block and expand your writing potential.

Featuring creative writing tasks to develop ideas and skills, quick and simple word play tasks, as well as practical exercises, journal reminders and other writer's tips and inspiring quotes, Write Every Day is an exciting way to unleash your inner wordsmith, kick-start your imagination and get you writing.
