Wildman E: Writing to Sell: A Text-Book
of Literary Craftsmanship

Writing to Sell: A Text-Book of Literary Craftsmanship

A clear, thoughtful, and practical guide to writing in the age of generative AI. AI and Writing is an indispensable guide to composing with generative AI. Sidney I. Dobrin prepares students to use GenAI effectively, ethically, and critically--skills now essential for academic and professional success. The book tackles core questions: What tasks do these tools best support? Where do they fall short? How are they used responsibly? Dobrin focuses on durable, transferable writing practices, as well as the real-world issues raised by AI, including authorship, plagiarism, copyright, bias, and the material consequences of AI. "Provocations" boxes spark critical engagement, and each chapter concludes with a sequence of exercises and activities that move students from analysis to hands-on experimentation and reflection.

AI and Writing - Second Edition

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

Everyday Rituals for Your Writing Life

Spiritual Direction for Writers

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.

The Imaginative Storm Method

Creative Writing

Bringing together essays from neurodivergent and disabled writers, and writers with chronic illnesses, this collection explores the impact of these experiences and the struggle against such biases within the field of creative writing. Whilst neuro-divergent and disabled writers publish world-class poetry, prose, and drama that moves readers and wins awards, they face many difficulties accessing these achievements - difficulties which often go unnoticed, unmentioned, and underappreciated. Visibility, insight, alternative approaches, and thorough research are all needed to create more inclusive writing environments. This book confronts these issues head on, calling for diversity in the creative writing field, community, and industry, and more equitable spaces in adjacent arenas from academia to publishing. Broken into four sections, this anthology focuses on creative writing programs, classrooms, the community, and its people, combining narrative, research and practical contributions to the field to offer a mix of practical strategies, personal and pedagogical interventions, critiques, and craft meditations that explore teaching, transformation, evolution, embodied craft, visibility, belonging, injustice, otherness, and views from the outside. With essays and excerpts written by authors and educators from across seven countries, who are each impacted by a wide range of disabilities, including ADHD, autism, blindness, dyslexia, dyspraxia, stroke aphasia, cerebral palsy, bipolar, fibromyalgia, and rheumatoid arthritis, this collection informs, deconstructs and re-imagines to reform and revolutionize normative structures within writing institutions and communities.

Divergent Writers

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."

From bestselling and award-winning author and professor Elizabeth McCracken comes an irresistible look at the art of writing.Writing can feel like an endless series of decisions. How does one face the blank page? Move a character around a room? Deal with time? Undertake revision? The good and bad news is that in fiction writing, there are no definitive answers to such questions: writers must come up with their own. Elizabeth McCracken, author of bestselling novels, National Book Award long-listed story collections, and a highly praised memoir, has been teaching for more than thirty-five years, guiding her many students through their own answers.In A Long Game, she shares insights gleaned along the way, offering practical tips and incisive thoughts about her own work as an artist. The book covers: <ul><li>Understanding and developing characters</li><li>Plot, and what to do if it eludes you</li><li>Her thoughts on common writing “rules”</li><li>And of course, the Butter Cow Lady of the Iowa State Fair and her work as it relates to revision</li></ul> Writing “is a long game,” she notes. “What matters is that you learn to get work done in the way that is possible for you, through consistency or panic. Through self-recrimination or self-delusion or self-forgiveness: every life needs all three.” As much a book about the life of a working artist as it is a guide to thinking about fiction, A Long Game is a revelatory and indispensable resource for any writer.
