{"product_id":"writing-down-the-bones-freeing-the-writer-within","title":"Writing Down the Bones: Freeing the Writer Within","description":"The all-time best-selling writer's handbook turns 30.\n\nWith insight, humor, and practicality, Natalie Goldberg inspires writers and would-be writers to take the leap into writing skillfully and creatively. She offers suggestions, encouragement, and solid advice on many aspects of the writer's craft: on writing from \"first thoughts\" (keep your hand moving, don't cross out, just get it on paper), on listening (writing is ninety percent listening; the deeper you listen, the better you write), on using verbs (verbs provide the energy of the sentence), on overcoming doubts (doubt is torture; don't listen to it)—even on choosing a restaurant in which to write. Goldberg sees writing as a practice that helps writers comprehend the value of their lives. The advice in her book, provided in short, easy-to-read chapters with titles that reflect the author's witty approach (\"Writing Is Not a McDonald's Hamburger,\" \"Man Eats Car,\" \"Be an Animal\"), will inspire anyone who writes—or who longs to.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 161180308X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.161180308X.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Goldberg, Natalie|Cameron, Julia|Addison, Bill\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
