Paper Back. Condición: New. From our first reading of this book (published continually since 1938, even amidst the splurge of crafty books -- that tells you something!) we exclaimed: ''this is the best book ever written about how to write!'' (Which, by the way, is also a quote from Carl Sandburg.) What can we tell you -- Ueland believes in writing. She believes in the importance of our ''thoughts, adventures, failures, rages, villainies and nobilities.'' Her motto is ''be bold, be free, be truthful,'' and she is convinced that truthfulness saves the writing, makes the writing. Drawing principally from Blake, Dostoevski, Tolstoy and Chekhov, but many other sources as well, she enthusiastically directs us to the choice-making center of our selves, where lies ''all originality, talent, honor, truthfulness, courage, and cheerfulness,'' and compels us to work and choose the ''good and the grand, the true and the beautiful.'' Anyone who cares about writing with color and authenticity must read this book. 180 pp.
