Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life
A Vintage paperback of Anne Lamott's writing guide, built around the advice her father gave her brother: take it bird by bird. The chapters are short, the anecdotes are self-deprecating, and the spiritual asides are present but not forced. The Vintage cover is the familiar softcover format, with the gentle typography that suggests the book has already been recommended to you by a friend. Ideal reader: the writer who is stuck and needs permission to write a terrible first draft, or the teacher who needs a humane alternative to the hero's journey model of creativity.
