It Got My Essay Accepted
I had been working on a personal essay for a couple of weeks. As I rewrote it, I used the chapter on personal essays in One Year to a Writing Life as a check list, and saw my essay becoming richer as a result.
I submitted the essay to a publication whose submission information said they would take 4 - 6 weeks to get back to me. They accepted it within 12 minutes of receiving it!
I will be recommending this to my writers' group members.
Excellent Tool
In my opinion this is one of the best books of its kind. If you use the excellent tools and exercises in each chapter, you will be inspired and gently guided along on your writing path, toward your goals.
Very well explained
This book is very good. Very well explained. Fro someone who likes to write and has not very much experience, this is a very good start.
Sensational writing tool
Don't have time to write a long review. This book is well worth the money. Best writing book I have bought since "Writing Down the Bones" over 20 years ago.
The Writing Life of a Writers' Group
For the last seven months, since I suggested our writers' group work, learn & write our way through Susan Tiberghien's One Year To A Writing Life, our group's commitment has solidified with each chapter of her book. Each bi-weekly meeting finds the six of us (writers, poets, academics)gathered to read & review our exercises from each chapter, copies for all and with reference to Tiberghien's "text". Recently, as a response to the growth in our writing and our awareness of that growth, we have re-committed to returning to particular chapters so that we may explore them once more in even greater depth, based on both the pleasure of the process and our personal learnings as writers. As the convener of our group, I would suggest a group approach to One Year To A Writing Life is an ideal
process to apply to Susan Tiberghien's wise & illuminating guidance.
