The Art of Revising Creative Nonfiction

14 U.S. Writers on Their Drafts, Craft, and Process

Drawing from more than thirty years of creative writing teaching experience, Suzanne Roberts offers down-to-earth, witty, and wise straight talk about writing and the writing life, accessible craft discussions, and thought-provoking twenty-minute genre-crossing writing prompts. This multi-genre approach is arranged by theme, including memory, family and friends, writing the body, love and lust, death and grief, nature and the environment, stories of shame, and magic and myth, along with discussions of revision and editing, building writing community, and publishing. The chapters offer a short discussion of each theme, friendly pep talks, accessible craft tips, a selection of thirty-five poems, stories, and essays from a diverse array of contemporary writers, and, of course, the writing prompts.Featured authors include Camille T. Dungy, Carolyn Forché, Gina Frangello, Linda LeGarde Grover, Lisa Lee Herrick, Major Jackson, Rebecca Makkai, Eva Saulitis, Patricia Smith, Stacey Waite, Lidia Yuknavitch, among many others, with writing advice of their own. 52 Writing Prompts will encourage and motivate both aspiring and established writers.

Inspiration for the Creative Writer

52 Writing Prompts

Intersectionality emerged as a critique of feminism from Black feminist activists and teacher-scholars in the 1970s. Intersectional perspectives illuminate how multiple aspects of identity come together and relate to one another. Yasmine Romero proposes intersectional processes for analyzing classroom talk and text, as well as innovating teaching and learning strategies attuned to students' lived experiences, identities, and identification practices. Romero unpacks the relationships between teachers and students and how diverse identities and identification practices converge within pedagogical interactions. She establishes frameworks for teachers to forge connections between lived experiences and local and global issues that impact teaching and learning; suggests theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical practices that address multiple intersections converging within teaching and learning spaces; and empowers teachers to enact change through action-reflection processes of dialoguing, decentering, and co-storying.

CE Mackenzie's Achy Affects is a trans-genre memoir that boldly reimagines how we care for ourselves and our communities amidst relentless cultural, political, and ecological upheavals. It feels like we're teetering on the edge of unprecedented crises. In the midst of this, as we wrestle with burnout and exhaustion, capitalism demands we push harder, achieve more, and become better. Mackenzie offers a radical alternative: give up the goal and just feel. Organized into four key emotions--wonder, shame, shyness, and nostalgia, with a final meditation on ache itself--Achy Affects confronts the simplistic idea that feelings are either "positive" or "negative." This tired binary demands we rehabilitate the bad into the good, whether or not this rehab is ethical, or even desirable. Instead, by tuning into the feeling of ache, we can resist these pressures and reclaim our agency through compositions of our own making. In the spirit of public intellectuals like Maggie Nelson and Julietta Singh, Mackenzie weaves their personal experiences of crisis--divorce and coming out, working in drug outreach, top surgery, new parenthood, and traversing the Alaskan tundra--into a nuanced exploration of ache. Through this lens, Mackenzie invites us to live alongside pain, not as something to be fixed, but as something to be understood without judgment or expectation.

The words teachers write on student work have the power to help students think critically and to hone and project their voices with confidence. They also have the power to shut students down. They may affect student identity, motivation, and improvement of writing skills. Research suggests that many of the types of comments teachers and other reviewers write on student papers are negative, nonsensical, unhelpful, and even potentially harmful, especially for first-generation, working-class, and otherwise disenfranchised students. This harm can be understood as a form of violence. Nonviolent Response, which is centered on tenets for nonviolent teaching practices, presents an approach to writing responses that help eliminate harmful affect and integrates efficient, carefully crafted, and clear guidance to writers. Rysdam and Torres offer evidence-based methods for effective, timesaving, motivational responses useful to teachers of writing and other responders or reviewers in professional and public contexts.

Strategies for Responding to Writing

Nonviolent Response

A creative masterclass for aspiring and established writers alikeAfter decades of writing award-winning books on subjects ranging from poetry to art to liturgical seasons, celebrated author Marilyn McEntyre turns her attention to the vocation that has shaped her life. Start with a Word: On the Craft and Adventure of Writing is a literary masterclass that eschews drills and formulas in favor of close readings and refreshingly playful advice.A veteran teacher, Marilyn understands that the best writing instruction doesn't come from rigid rules or rote approaches to filling the blank page. Instead, she demonstrates how the writers whose works we have enjoyed can become our tutors. She calls us to move beyond asking "What does this text say?" to a more revealing question: "How does this text work?" This shift in perspective--from passive consumption to active apprenticeship--transforms how we encounter literature and how we create it.More than a how-to manual, Start with a Word is an invitation into a way of being that honors both the precision and the mystery of words. It offers short lessons on essential elements of literary craft, close readings of passages from a range of works, writing prompts, and, above all, encouragement for authors to find their unique path into work only they can create. "Reading and writing keep alive in us the desire to be precise, lively, surprising, generous, inviting, challenging, wise. They make us want to be good, if only in the sense that choosing exact and appropriate words is a matter of choosing the good. . . . I don't think you can be an excellent writer without developing some virtues, if only fidelity to a practice that honors the gift of language."

Creative Writing Curiosity: Ten Essays on the Curious and Writerly is a lively collection examining how curiosity informs, shapes, deepens and empowers creative writing. Across ten varied essays the collection explores curiosity as stimulus, as guide, as teacher, companion or provocateur. Sometimes initiating, sometimes encouraging deeper thinking and greater imagining, and often the impetus, curiosity is shown as innate and routinely engaged with uncertainty. It is from our desire to know, the questioning that our curiosity entails, that creative writing emerges. Ultimately, it is shown that curiosity is manifest not only in what we write creatively but in how we go about writing it.

Foreword by Beth Kephart, author of Handling the Truth.

A Writer's Guide to Unlocking Your Story, Choosing a Publishing Path, and Honoring the Creative Journey

Imagine a Door

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?).
