Tuesday Tips – Why We Write

In Why We Write, twenty acclaimed authors discuss the writing process and why they do what they do.

Discussions on craft, process, and the world of writing are just a few of the elements that populate these chapters, each one brought to you by a different beloved author. Whether you’ve written many novels, are plugging through your first draft, or are a writer of any kind, this book is full of wit, wisdom, and the infinitely valuable validation that all writers struggle, and many of them still succeed.
