Writing and Reading and Editing, O My!
I am a writer, reviewer, teacher, and editor. I pick up and discard new obsessions on a regular basis. Right now I'm wild about the work of Brandon Sanderson and Bryce Moore. Longer-running favorites include Patricia McKillip and Mary Gentle. Information about me and my humble scribblings may be found at http://www.leonawisoker.com

This book was given to me as a Christmas present in 2012. I devoured it within two weeks, but I suspect I will go back over and over to reread certain sections. A very, very handy, straightforward, and reassuring book that shoves you back into motion when fear has stolen your momentum. I highly recommend this to any creative, anywhere, who's facing The Fear.
