Book Synopsis The Little Black Book of Writers' Wisdom by : Steven D. Price
Download or read book The Little Black Book of Writers' Wisdom written by Steven D. Price and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author and journalist Gene Fowler put it best: “Writing is easy; all you do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until the drops of blood form on your forehead.” Anyone who has ever wanted or been required to create something more complicated than a shopping list or a Tweet knows there’s more truth than poetry in the observation. The process can be difficult, frustratingly so when we realize that although we use words all the time, coming up with the right ones can be a daunting task. Even the most celebrated writers have reflected on this creative process, and their observations and conclusions are collected in this book. The compiler, himself no stranger to a blank page or computer screen, has selected the wisest and wittiest utterances on such subjects as why we write (Ernest Hemingway: “I have a good life but I must write because if I do not write a certain amount I do not enjoy the rest of my life.”); how to write (Anton Chekhov: “Don’t tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass.”); and writing for money (Cormac McCarthy: “I never had any doubts about my abilities. I knew I could write. I just had to figure out how to eat while doing this.”). It has been said that reading won’t make you a good writer, but it will make you a better writer. Dip into this lively and useful treasure trove, and you’ll be well on your way.

Download or read book Black Hat Wisdom written by Julio Varela and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-26 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Hat Wisdom was written as the author's personal guide to achieve spiritual freedom and attain inner peace. Its main theme focuses on applying metaphysical attributes, without any specific theological beliefs that might constrain an open minded approach to the everyday occurrences of our daily lives. Its prime intention is to inspire, motivate, and embrace the inner essence of your individuality and the power of your spirit, as the main forces that provide the answers to what we already know but have most probably forgotten. The book is a very non-conventional approach to unravel the elusive truths behind those age-old questions of why we are here? What is the purpose of life? Where do we go after death? Why should we believe in what has been forced upon us through thousands of years of traditions and conventional wisdom? And many other questions which, perhaps because of our practical ways of thinking, we have failed to consider important.Hopefully by reading each essay more than once you will be open to consider a different way of thinking - a new way of thinking that could cement your present beliefs or shake them to their core, or maybe help you embrace other ways of getting closer to the absolute truth or to a truth within which the essential nature is forever changing. Lastly the author hopes that the reader will be inspired to question everything, with the compassion and understanding that will allow LOVE and PEACE to always lead the way.You are greater than you think you are.

Book Synopsis Quest for Eternal Sunshine by : Mendek Rubin
Download or read book Quest for Eternal Sunshine written by Mendek Rubin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quest for Eternal Sunshine chronicles the triumphant, true story of Mendek Rubin, a brilliant inventor who overcame both the trauma of the Holocaust and decades of unrelenting depression to live a life of deep peace and boundless joy. Born into a Hassidic Jewish family in Poland in 1924, Mendek grew up surrounded by extreme anti-Semitism. Armed with an ingenious mind, he survived three horrific years in Nazi slave-labor concentration camps while virtually his entire family was murdered in Auschwitz. After arriving in America in 1946—despite having no money or professional skills—his inventions helped revolutionize both the jewelry and packaged-salad industries. Remarkably, Mendek also applied his ingenuity to his own psyche, developing innovative ways to heal his heart and end his emotional suffering. After Mendek died in 2012, his daughter, Myra Goodman, found an unfinished manuscript in which he’d revealed the intimate details of his healing journey. Quest for Eternal Sunshine—the extraordinary result of a posthumous father-daughter collaboration—tells Mendek’s whole story and is filled with eye-opening revelations, effective self-healing techniques, and profound wisdom that have the power to transform the way we live our lives. An inspirational biography of a Holocaust survivor overcoming depression and PTSD. An essential new addition to Jewish Holocaust history.
