Myers L: The Heart and Craft of Writing
a Healing Memoir

The Heart and Craft of Writing a Healing Memoir

Allworth

Memoir has the power to change not just a writer’s life, but the world we all share. Too often dismissed as self-indulgent or merely therapeutic, memoir is in fact one of the most radical literary forms of our time—an act of truth-telling that dismantles cultural myths and creates new ways of seeing. In Truth Be Told, acclaimed memoirist and psychologist Kerry Cohen, author of the beloved bestseller Loose Girl, shows readers how personal storytelling can subvert dominant narratives, generate empathy, and reveal the deeper truths that connect us all. Blending literary guidance with psychological insight, Cohen explores the art and intention behind today’s most powerful memoirs—those that move beyond confession to create meaning. With warmth, humor, and deep respect for the craft, she offers writers a clear methodology, illuminating examples, and structured exercises to help them find their story, shape it authentically, and write it in a way that truly matters. Whether you’re a first-time writer or a practiced storyteller, Truth Be Told will teach you not only how to write a memoir worth reading—but how to uncover the deeper truths of being hum

Crafting Memoir That Matters

Truth Be Told

Winner, 2021 Foreword INDIES award "Brilliant, time-tested and clear" advice that will help writers at all stages, in all genres, write their very best book-- and then make it better. As a freelance editor for more than a decade, Williams has shepherded books from rough draft to polished manuscripts bought by Big Five houses, university and literary presses, and for independent publishers. Now, she distills everything she's learned from editing hundreds of drafts, coaching writers past creative blocks, and navigating authors through querying and publication, into this useful guide for every step from idea to book. This fully updated second edition of Seven Drafts: Self-Edit Like a Pro from Blank Page to Book divides writing and revision into distinct stages, with a new focus in each draft and a brand-new chapter. Williams' frank, funny voice encourages writers to tackle even big editing tasks with a sense of humor and a feeling that someone who understands is on their side. With plenty of fresh examples, insider wisdom, and snappy footnotes, Seven Drafts teaches story, character, elements of writing craft and structure, how to seek and use feedback, and the publication process.

What is the sound of story?Voice in writing can seem elusive and hard to define. It’s more than just style it’s rhythm, energy, attitude, and the unique fingerprint of a narrator or character. Voice is shaped by culture and history as much as the mechanics of language.&nbsp;In The Sound of Story, author and writing teacher Jordan Rosenfeld demystifies voice and its close companion, tone, offering writers the tools to develop and refine their own. Through contemporary examples, this book explores how syntax, point of view, emotion and more shape voice on the page.Whether you’re crafting fiction or nonfiction, this book will help you shape and refine voice to create compelling, authentic narratives. The Sound of Story empowers writers to wield voice and tone with purpose, increasing their chances of publication, and delivering a compelling story that leaps off every page.Sibylline Press is proud to announce its new imprint, Sibyl Writing Craft, dedicated to providing definitive titles on writing craft and the book business for writers.

Why do some speakers get booked again and again, while most struggle to land even one paid gig? What makes one speaker the industry go-to, while everyone else is overlooked, no matter how good they are on stage? Why do some speakers effortlessly attract repeat bookings, referrals and high fees, while others don't? Can you really be more in demand, more respected, and more booked without being famous or a celebrity? The answer is YES! This book reveals what the top 1% most-booked speakers do differently -- and how you can do it too. In The Bookability Formula, former international speaker bureau owner, Maria Franzoni sets out to answer the question: does Richard Koch's 80/20 Principle apply to speakers too? She analysed years of speaker bureau data and what she found was striking: just 1% of her roster generated 80% of bookings and over half the revenue. Determined to uncover what set the 1% apart, Maria developed the Bookability Formula -- a clear, proven framework for any speaker who wants to become commercially and consistently bookable. Packed with insider insights, real examples and tools you can use straight away, this is the book for speakers who want to stop guessing and start getting booked.
