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

Writing to Sell: A Text-Book of Literary Craftsmanship

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.

Developing Voice and Tone in Writing

The Sound of Story

It's not just what you say, but how you say it.Good communicators know this, but it's often easier said than done. Teachers, leaders, and speakers are often left bewildered, wondering why the content that was so carefully planned and delivered seems to fall flat with the audience. The art of communication requires more than the transfer of information; it both connects with and engages the hearer. To communicate well, speakers must understand both their audience and themselves.Speaking by the Numbers offers a strategy that combines communication principles with Enneagram wisdom to help leaders, pastors, and teachers understand how to convey content in ways that both inspire and connect with their audiences. Using the Enneagram wisdom of triads and stances, communicators can learn insight into the ways that various Enneagram numbers receive and process information. Sean Palmer draws from his extensive experience as a public speaker to develop communication strategies that lead to connection, transformation, and mobilization of audiences. Providing real examples of speeches and messages he has given, Palmer shows how he uses the Enneagram to craft a message that connects with his audience. A healthy marriage of Enneagram wisdom and communication skill can help us speak with clarity into the heart of where people live, love, and experience life.

Speaking by the Numbers

A radically liberating collection of essays, ideas and approaches to writing and teaching poetry

Do It Wrong is a short, snappy series of provocations and suggestions designed to help poets think outside the box and foster creativity.

It’s a permission slip to take a path others reject, to do the counter-intuitive thing, to embrace the weird.

It's a guidebook designed to bring poets together, to question our assumptions, and to move past the “business as usual” educational models into the new, the strange, and the “wrong.”

And it's a playful, purposeful contribution toward the building of stronger, more resilient writing communities.

For readers of Beth Pickens’s Make Your Art No Matter What and Austin Kleon’s Steal Like an Artist, Derek Beaulieu distills 20 years of experience teaching creative writing into a joyfully mischievous manifesto on how to write and teach poetry with meaning.

How to Be a Poet in the Twenty-First Century

Sites of Writing builds upon the multiple contributions of Anne Ruggles Gere across a long and highly productive career. The chapters in this edited collection, written by leading scholars (including some of Gere's former students) to track her major contributions to writing studies, situate those contributions within the broader landscape of field development, and draw on those findings to assess important trends and project productive pathways for the future. The contributors to the collection consider disciplinary history, language and literacy, writing across the curriculum, digital rhetoric, writing's extracurriculum, assessment, and English education, among other areas. Connecting these multiple fields of activity, Sites of Writing affirms Gere's view of writing as a powerful social and cultural activity and of literacy, broadly conceived, as enabling cultural transformations and, in the process, transforming writing studies and other fields.

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."

Designed for graduate classroom and professional development use, this guide encourages readers to think rhetorically about audience, genre, and beyond, and to apply these reflections in meaningful ways as they craft the documents they will need throughout their careers.The first section addresses key concepts in design convergence: design thinking, information architecture, and technology and the second section provides application opportunities for readers. In establishing a foundational understanding of the key concepts used in design convergence, the guide brings together a range of disciplinary knowledge and experiences, including ways to work with generative artificial intelligence. Integrated into each chapter are exercises and scenarios based on real-world academic professionals' experiences that are designed to help readers deepen their understanding and consider possibilities and opportunities for (re)design in their field. Each chapter includes activities that position readers to work with their own information and content toward purposes that meet their personalized needs. These exercises include generating documents related to educating, leading, branding, and serving, such as classroom, research, and professional development materials.Providing an equitable foundation for document genre construction and demystifying audience expectations, this book appeals to graduate students, faculty and institutional leaders in Rhetoric, Composition and Writing Studies as well as the humanities, arts, and social sciences.

The Self-Help Author's Toolkit

Poetry is part of our lives. Any avid reader of Lorca, Neruda, or Miguel Hernández knows this well, but it is also intuited by those who, out of ignorance or excessive respect, believe that this is a forbidden territory for them. This book by Carmen Ramos aims to demonstrate, on the contrary, that anyone with a minimum of sensitivity and training can write poetry and thus enjoy an extremely enriching experience, capable of transforming us and making us more empathetic and fulfilled people. The author has brought together a series of practical exercises whose effectiveness and usefulness have been demonstrated in numerous workshops. Hence, the language used is simple and informal. The teaching approach contained here is far removed from academicism and literary theories, making the practice of poetry accessible to readers of all levels of education. The aim is simply to help those who are new to writing poetry, but also those who are familiar with it and need a little motivation, because, as Ramos points out, the act of writing does not flow in the same way over time, and periods of great productivity are often followed by less fruitful ones. Both novices and experienced writers will find this book a valuable and inspiring stimulus.

MANUAL DE ESCRITURA POÉTICA

As the first book-length work on this topic, it makes a necessary contribution to research on proofreading of student work.
