Write The Book: Conversations on Craft
Arts:Books
An interview with the author Phyllis Barber, whose new novel is The Desert Between Us (University of Nevada Press).
Phyllis Barber kindly suggested a Write the Book Prompt for us. Go to your writing desk first thing in the morning, when your mind is fresh and not bogged down with tasks and duties. Doing this, writing first thing, from the lip of your mind - writing fast and not editing yourself - can be so useful. Set down whatever idea comes without worrying if you’ll be able to use it. Just have fun. Let your morning brain liberate your creativity.
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and please tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
