Summary: A mixed bag, but inspirational for any writer
Comment: This selection of pieces that originally appeared in the Washington Post is a mixed bag - some of the articles are about the writing process, others about becoming a writer, but many of them are inspirational, and will help any writer feel more comfortable about what they strive to achieve. The selection of authors is eclectic, so no matter what type of writing interests you, you'll find something that fits your style.

Summary: I LOVE this BOOK
Comment: The author and a panel of writers were recently on C-SpanBook. The topics and discussion were so interesting that I purchased and read the book over two evenings. As a (beginning) writer myself I gleaned many a new idea of where to get content for my work in progress. I am confident that this book will move me along with creative ideas and inspiration.
Marie Arana has compiled and edited this book to be packed with useful information that will assist any writer. As I watched C-Span I wondered if this woman is married. Wouldn't it be great to be married and have late night discussions while looking at such beauty.
I've never read any of Maria's "Writing Life" columns at the Washington Post. I am delighted to have surfed to Cspan to have learned about this book. There were no disappointments for me.
My recommendation to you writers (or beginning writers like me) is to buy this book.
