About this product
Product Information
In this long-awaited sequel to her bestselling books Writing Down the Bones and Wild Mind , Natalie Goldberg, one of the most sought-after writing teachers of our time, takes us to the next step in the writing process. You've filled your notebooks, done your writing practice, discovered your original voice. Now what? How do you turn this raw material into finished stories, essays, poems, novels, memoirs? Drawing on her own experience as a writer and a student of Zen, Natalie shows you how to create a field big enough to allow your "wild mind" to wander -- and then gently direct its tremendous energy into whatever you want to write. Here, too, is invaluable advice on how to overcome writer's block, how to deal with the fear of criticism and rejection, how to get the most from working with an editor, and how to learn from reading accomplished authors. With humor and compassion, Goldberg recounts her own mistakes on the way to publication -- and how you can avoid the most common pitfalls of the beginning writer. Through it all there is a deep celebration of writing itself -- not just as the means to an end, but as a path to living a deeper, more fully alive life.

This might just be the first time I’ve ever bought anything on eBay & had it look even better than it did in the pictures.
Book quality is perfect (it’s about $15-20 for a beat up copy, so this is just great; I highly appreciate it.)
The seller shipped very, very quickly, & it is appreciated & commended as it would’ve arrived Wednesday instead of Monday, that is today.
Packaging is relatively thin, but that wasn’t a problem for me.
5/5 stars

I had been searching for this book for some time and when I saw this one listed I purchased it right away and the seller shipped it immediately. However, I ended up in the hospital unexpectedly so the package was returned. I contacted the seller and they reshipped again no charge, which was awesome as I offered to pay for second shipping. Would definitely buy from them again.
