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

The Heart and Craft of Writing a Healing Memoir

If you are building something that pays off slowly, this book is the blueprint for the patient way it actually gets done. For founders, writers, makers, and anyone assembling a body of work over years: the most prolific author you've never studied is the best teacher alive on building work that lasts. Gordon Korman wrote his first book for a seventh-grade assignment and was marked down for messiness. It sold two hundred thousand copies. Five decades later he has published more than a hundred books and sold over thirty-five million copies, and he still insists it was never genius. It was a chapter a week, held for a very long time. This book takes that career apart for parts. In the tradition of Robert Greene, it reads one extraordinary working life as a quarry of practical laws and hands each one to you. You will learn: -<ul><li>Why cadence beats intensity, and how a unit too small to refuse outproduces every heroic sprint</li><li>Why the library, not the launch, is the wealth</li><li>How to know which mountain isn't yours, and stop chasing prestige away from the thing you're great at</li><li>Why franchises compound and standalones don't</li><li>How to outlast the recurring funeral every field announces for itself Seventeen laws, each drawn from documented public fact, each tested against one honest standard: keep only what would be worth doing even if you never break through. The career is astonishing. Not one of its components is. That is the most useful thing about it, because components can be copied. An independent, unauthorized analysis. Not authorized by, endorsed by, or affiliated with Gordon Korman. Drawn entirely from public sources and written in good faith.</li></ul>

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

The Creator Wealth Code

Independently published

Some creators become influential.Fewer become free.The Creator Wealth Code is Volume V of The Starchitect Creator Series, a premium nonfiction book for creators, builders, writers, artists, thinkers, entrepreneurs, and independent minds who want to build income, ownership, and freedom without being captured by the market.This is not an investing book.It is not a tax, accounting, or financial advice manual.It is not about turning creativity into a desperate sales machine.It is a book about creator wealth as architecture.Inside, The Starchitect explores why influence does not automatically create freedom, why money must never become the creator's identity, why ownership protects the center, why income must become infrastructure, why boundaries are economic architecture, why assets outlive effort, and why systems must replace panic.The Creator Wealth Code is for the creator who has outgrown unstable attention, scattered income, constant urgency, and market obedience.It is for the one ready to build wealth that protects the work instead of corrupting it.You'll learn how to think about money as structure, income as support, ownership as continuity, assets as stored force, systems as protection, and sovereignty as the real wealth beneath visible success.Volume I, Being Unignorable, established identity as the root architecture of creative power.Volume II, Creative Authority, showed how identity becomes trust.Volume III, The Value Advantage, showed how trust becomes demand.Volume IV, Influence Without Force, showed how demand becomes movement.Volume V, The Creator Wealth Code, takes the next step: movement becoming sovereignty.Because creator wealth is not the performance of success.It is the structure that keeps the work free.

How Creators Build Ownership, Income, and Freedom Without Being Captured by the Market

A lively examination of what creative writing is, how it is practiced and how it can be better understood, Graeme Harper explores the very nature of the art form in this book, outlining its key components, discussing its methods and breaking down the implications of why writers write, and why it matters that they do. Locating a starting point for knowledge within the practice of writing itself, and as something anyone can undertake, Harper lays out how creative writing relates to personal, cultural, artistic and psychological enrichment, posits how individual choice is intrinsic, and shows how a definition of creative writing can assist action. Uniquely combining practice-perspective with a critical one, the creative writing process is disentangled from its end product here and presented as constantly forming, wherein craft, or the 'how to', should not be applied prescriptively but as a node and used to generate communicative flows. In showing how to understand creative writing, and in suggesting much of what we have been told about it has hidden its true nature, Harper makes a radical case for a universal creative writing; he declares our practice of writing creatively as evidence of an informed humanity, equally devoted to the arts and sciences, and all informed by our individual abilities to empathize, communicate and to create the world.

A Hands-On Guide to Building Fandom Stories Readers Love

Write Your Own Fan Fiction

Nitrogen is what gives Guinness its surge and its dome. Fifty-four years later, a food scientist in Portland put the same gas into cold coffee, and nitro cold brew became a category. Nobody had hidden the pattern. It sat in the beer trade press for half a century, in an industry no one in coffee had any reason to read. Coffee people read coffee reports. Beer people read beer reports. We are taught to look for the future close to home: among our competitors, our customers, and the prevailing ideas within our own field. By the time a shift becomes visible inside a category, much of its strategic value has already been claimed. Your next advantage is probably taking shape somewhere you are not looking. Latitudinal thinking is the practice of looking across fields to recognize patterns others miss. Rather than examining the world you already know more intently, you learn to identify the same need, behavior, or force taking shape elsewhere, and to consider what it could make possible in your own work. Strategist Lara O’Shea has built her career on these connections. Drawing on geography, anthropology, photojournalism, and more than two decades of work across industries, she follows premiumization from spirits to skincare, coffee, and pet food, and now to fresh produce. She shows how two exhausted doctors at Great Ormond Street watched a Formula 1 pit stop on television and rebuilt the most dangerous minutes in pediatric heart surgery around what they saw, cutting technical errors per handover by roughly 40 percent. She traces how a self-taught carpenter’s son solved the longitude problem that Europe’s astronomers had claimed for two hundred years. Recognizing a connection is only the beginning. At the center of the book is the Latitude Scan, a five-step method for finding promising patterns, uncovering the forces beneath them, translating them across boundaries, and testing whether they truly fit: Chart, Scan, Triangulate, Traverse, and Ground Truth. A chapter on failure names the six ways a borrowed pattern goes wrong, so a reader can tell a meaningful parallel from a superficial resemblance before betting on it. The book arrives at the moment depth stopped paying. Your competitor’s AI has read the same reports as yours, and knowing your category better than anyone else is no longer an advantage you can hold. What remains is human work: deciding where to look, recognizing a structure when it turns up in an unfamiliar container, and judging whether it will survive the crossing.

“Here is a writer with a rare gift for appreciation and for reminding us of all we have to celebrate in our fractured world.”&nbsp;—Pico Iyer, author of 
The Half Known Life Behind the scenes of a globe-spanning career in freelance journalism Foreword by Tim Cahill A Crooked Line celebrates an age when print journalism changed lives and made the world a better place. That era may be winding down, but this perceptive book makes the case for why incisive writing will always matter. Over the course of his 40-year career, Michael Shapiro has reported from more than 20 countries, writing for National Geographic, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times and many other top publications. But the itinerant writer’s life, while rewarding, has never been easy.
 
Shapiro worked as an investigative reporter and staff writer for San Francisco Bay Area newspapers before letting go of a regular paycheck and setting out to share stories of people and places worldwide. The exhilarations of the open road, “afoot and light-hearted” as Whitman wrote, were tempered by the challenges of freelancing, from making a living to working with heavy-handed editors.
 
His stories put people first: For a feature about Puerto Rico’s recovery after Hurricane Maria, he visited farmers who spoke of shifting from exporting produce to growing food for local people. His profile of a Yosemite photographer, who climbed Half Dome after being diagnosed with cancer, brought the man’s big-hearted humanity to the fore.
 
Shapiro is known as a travel writer, but his work goes far beyond global dispatches. In this book he shares stories of: <ul><li>saving Sunset magazine’s priceless archive of Western life (including photos made by Ansel Adams) after Time Inc. told staffers to toss everything into a dumpster</li><li>an investigation into the U.S. government’s attempt to conceal the circumstances of pro football star and soldier Pat Tillman’s death during the war in Afghanistan</li><li>writing a tribute about environmental hero Jane Goodall just hours after she died</li><li>how the Grateful Dead’s ecstatic songs celebrate the wonders of nature.</li></ul>Renowned for his books of conversations with writers and artists, A Sense of Place and The Creative Spark, Shapiro has interviewed David Sedaris, Amy Tan, Smokey Robinson, Joan Rivers, Frances Mayes and Peter Matthiessen. In this volume, he tells the story of how he convinced a reluctant Paul Theroux to agree to an interview and shares an in-depth dialogue with poet and philosopher David Whyte. A Crooked Line highlights Shapiro’s best journalism and includes behind-the-scenes anecdotes about how he pitched stories and got assignments worldwide. Postscripts detail what happened afterward; some include letters from people he wrote about, sharing what his coverage meant to them. Due to the dramatic changes in the journalistic landscape, a career like Shapiro’s couldn’t begin today. Yet the skills he honed as a journalist—empathetic listening, concise and evocative writing, and a keen sense of what matters—remain as relevant as ever. The tales and insights in A Crooked Line provide a timely affirmation of journalism’s enduring power to illuminate the human experience. This penetrating book reminds us that whatever life path we choose, it’s vital to make it our own.
