How I Found the Write Path is available.
And it’s FREE.
The e-book is a compilation of letters by 60 authors who
wrote to their new-writer selves. The book is free to help writers.
This was my letter for the blogfest back in May. My letter is included in the
book.
From one of the project’s founder and co-editor, Carrie Butler on why she started this project:
“Because it’s one of the most crucial periods in a writer’s
life—full of nerves and hope we refuse to acknowledge. We’ve all been there.
That’s why over sixty of us have written letters to our past selves, candidly sharing things we don’t always discuss in public. The hope is that those of you who haven’t published will learn from our experiences. And those of you who have published? Well, you just might realize you’re not alone.”

“I can't tell you how excited I am about this book. There is seriously SO much great advice compiled in this baby. No matter what stage you're in of your writing, you will most definitely find something beneficial in this book. And most likely, you'll be nodding your head in agreement as you read. (I sure was!)”
Here’s my take:
This book is for writers at every stage of their journey.
Hopefully new writers will learn from our mistakes. And experienced writers
will commiserate. Every writer can find inspiration.

ReplyDeleteThat's great, Alex!
DeleteEvery writer will find inspiration. YEAH! This is so important to help new writers. It will help every writer know we're all in this thing together. Honored to be in it with you, T! xoxo
ReplyDeleteRobyn, I wish there had been a book like this out there for me when I started. I'm honored to be in it with you too. We're going to be in 3 anthologies together in a short time!
DeleteWhat a great idea for a project. I remember when everyone was posting these. I'm glad it finally got published.
ReplyDeleteLiz, I agree. I'm glad Carrie thought of it. I might've had a different writing path if I'd had a book like this to read back in 2006.
DeleteHi Theresa .. that's great - just downloaded mine - so I can read all our bloggers' stories ... it's a great idea to encourage us to get on with things ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteHilary, thank you for downloading! It makes all the contributors happy!
DeleteSo important we all share our advice. Awesome you were able to participate.
ReplyDeleteNatalie, I agree. I wish someone had explained how this whole writing/publishing process worked when I started out. If many people are saying the same thing in one place, it's hard to ignore the advice!
DeleteI'm going to download it today! That's awesome that your letter was included in the book; I'm looking forward to reading it!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Neurotic Workaholic. I know you're busier than ever, but I hope you're finding a little time to write too.
DeleteIt's a wonderful collection. I'm thrilled to be part of it.
ReplyDeleteMedeia, I'm thrilled to be a part of it with you.
DeleteWhat a fabulous collection of stories. I love that so many writers shared what they have learned with their younger selves. Your letter is one we can all relate to and it is good to know that we are not alone! I laughed about the "invest in Apple" part- but definitely good advice. :)
ReplyDeleteWriting is definitely a much longer process than I ever realized!

Jess, I'm glad you identified with my letter. Writing is certainly a longer process than I ever realized too!
DeleteSo glad it's out there. I wish I'd had something like this when I started.
ReplyDeleteMe too, Cleemckenzie!
DeleteOoh! Gotta add this to the buy-with-next-Amazon-order pile!
ReplyDeleteDeniz, that's exciting! I hope you like it.
