Farrell K: Fairy Tale Heroine

Fairy Tale Heroine

Live and Write Her Journey

Unpublished essays in Spanish by a master of world literature on how to be a writer and practical advice for new authors. Jack London used the press as a space for reflection on literature itself. Articles such as Getting Into Print, Phenomena of Literary Evolution, and Eight Great Factors of Literary Success are short poetics of the craft. In them, London addresses young writers, shares his experience in the publishing market, and defends literature connected to social reality. These reflections, now almost forgotten, are fundamental to understanding how London conceived his dual identity: journalist and storyteller, writer and worker of the word. This annotated edition aims to place each text in its original context, offer keys to reading it, and make material that until now remained scattered in newspaper archives available to the Spanish-speaking public. Jack London's voice, with its passionate search for adventure and commitment, resonates here with renewed force. The work continues the series already begun by this publisher on this author with articles on socialism (What is Socialism?).

El Oficio de Escribir

She reveals how she created some of her own beloved works, taking readers on a fascinating journey into some of the largest questions in the genre.Building on pieces originally published in leading literary magazines, Dust and Light is an elegant exploration of the hazy borderlands of fiction sewn from the materials of history. Filled with profound insights, it will be a delight for any devoted fiction readers, and of great use to aspiring writers too.

Bloomsbury Writer's Guides and Anthologies

A complete introduction to the art and craft of extremely compressed works of imaginative literature, this book, now in its 2nd edition, introduces both traditional and innovative approaches to the short form and demonstrates how it possesses structure, logic, and coherence while simultaneously resisting expectations. With discussion questions, writing prompts, flash interviews, and illustrated key concepts, the book covers prose poetry, flash fiction, micro memoir, lyric essay, cross-genre/hybrid writing and much more. Two new chapters explore how to spark inspiration and innovation, and how to take the next steps by collaborating with partners and preparing work for publication. In this revised and expanded edition, H. K. Hummel and Stephanie Lenox present the ultimate companion to writing short fiction, featuring microplays, new short-form tactics, and a dozen fresh anthology pieces by Eve L. Ewing, Ross Gay, Jayne Anne Phillips, Gertrude Stein, and Jean Toomer, along with one-sentence student workshops that spotlight small but powerful moves in the short form. The extensive anthology showcases sixty short-form works including microplays and pieces by writers from Argentina, Chile, Guatemala, Canada, France, Greece, Bosnia, and the U.S., offering a vibrant mix of styles, forms, themes, and voices.

The Art of Revising Creative Nonfiction

Write Free

What if the writing life isn't about daily word counts--but about daily attention to your whole self?You don't need to write every day to be a writer. You don't need perfect conditions, endless hours, or a life free from doubt. What you need is permission to bring your whole, imperfect self to the page--and practices that nourish your soul as you write.All of life is the writing life.Drawing on her experience as a spiritual director working primarily with writers, Charlotte Donlon offers something rare: a book that honors both the craft of writing and the care of the soul. Through contemplative practices, personal stories, and wisdom from writers like Toni Morrison, Margaret Walker, and Kaveh Akbar, she invites you to discover how rest, doubt, grief, and joy all become sacred ground for creative flourishing.Structured around five essential movements--"Begin," "Belong," "Become," "Behold," "Bestow"--this book offers practical rituals and gentle companionship for the real conditions of your life. Whether you're navigating resistance, recovering from burnout, or simply longing for a more sustainable practice, you'll find permission to write from exactly where you are.Writers of all backgrounds are welcome here. People of deep faith and profound doubt. Those who write every day and those who write in stolen moments. Published authors and private journalers. This is a sanctuary, not a system--a space where your creative identity isn't measured by output but nourished by attention.Spiritual Direction for Writers doesn't promise to make you more productive. It promises something better: to help you become more fully yourself, on and off the page. Because when writing helps make you a kinder, wiser, and more generous human being--when it opens you to what matters most--you've already succeeded."Charlotte's book makes space, supports readers, writers, and listeners, and truly cares about the people who encounter its pages. It is a place to land and rest, a place to be curious, to experiment, to pray, to breathe, to feel, and to embrace the truth of your identity as a writer." --Ashley M. Jones, poet laureate emerita of Alabama

Writing Portals for Life After Loss

Letting Grief Speak

24th Poet Laureate of the United States Ada Limón inspires us to see poetry as much more than just words—as a powerful force for healing, a call to action, and a vibrant celebration of humanity’s many voices. Ada Limón—celebrated poet laureate and 2023 MacArthur fellow—takes us on an inspiring journey into a world where poetry is both a soothing balm for the soul and a spark for transformation. With her blend of accessible yet profound prose, Limón delivers a powerful message: poetry has the ability to heal, connect, and remind us of our shared humanity. Limón’s mission to make poetry approachable shines brightly in this slim but impactful book. Recognized as a 2024 Time magazine Woman of the Year for her commitment to bringing poetry into everyday lives, Limón passionately argues that poetry is essential to understanding ourselves—our tenderness, courage, imperfections, and our deep, unshakable worthiness of love. Drawing from her own experiences as the 24th US poet laureate, Limón shares how poetry connects us not only to each other but to the natural world. This theme is at the heart of her project You Are Here, which celebrates the beauty of our environment and our place in it. Her prose, like her poetry, feels like an open invitation—welcoming readers of all backgrounds to explore the richness of human experience through verse. Fans of Robin Wall Kimmerer, Matthew Zapruder, or Jesmyn Ward will find a kindred spirit in Against Breaking—which offers a refuge, a reminder of the resilience and beauty found within us and all around us. As Limón writes with heartfelt clarity, “If you need to remember what makes us human, tender, brave, flawed, and worthy of love, you need poetry.”

Page One to Done

What if reading poetry could change you--not just what you think, but how you move through the world?For forty years, Thomas Gardner led students through this transformative act--not analyzing poems from a distance but reperforming them from the inside. Walking together through Elizabeth Bishop's broken beaches, Robert Frost's snowy woods, and Emily Dickinson's rooms of possibility, they discovered that getting lost is how we are found. That acknowledging fragility opens eyes to wonder. That poems, like parables, ask us not to produce definitive explanations but to keep up.A Place of Encounter is Gardner's luminous record of this work. Through fifty short lyric essays moving between memory, close reading, and theological reflection, he opens up the inner drama of poems as spiritual exercises--spaces where, as Dickinson puts it, our narrow hands are forced wide to gather paradise. With the grace and precision of the poems he loves, Gardner shows how deep reading grooves interior change.Here is the classroom as temple: bodies leaning forward, voices rising together, readers discovering they're no longer alone. Here is teaching from a position of faith that speaks across every spiritual commitment. Here is poetry as a place of encounter.
