Don't Miss the Magic: Essays on the Writing Process

Billie Hinton, novelist and psychotherapist, offers a short but potent collection of essays on the writing process with a focus on finding the joy, and the magic, in penning the first, rough draft all the way to editing a final manuscript.

Crammed with anecdotes and metaphors for creative work, the essays bring both depth psychology and mindfulness into the process, with clear and concrete tips for writers at the end of each essay.

Although addressed directly to writers, the essays offer insight into the creative process in general, and in living a rich and reflective creative life.
