Book excerpt: A collection of personal writing exercises and commentary from some of today's best novelists, short story writers, and writing teachers, including Jill McCorkle, Amy Bloom, Robert Olen Butler, Steve Almond, Jayne Anne Phillips, Virgil Suarez, Margot Livesay, and more. What's the secret behind the successful and prolific careers of critically acclaimed novelists and short story writers Amy Bloom, Steve Almond, Jayne Anne Phillips, Alison Lurie, and others? Divine assistance? Otherworldly talent? An unsettlingly close relationship with the Muse? While the rest of us are staring at blank sheets of paper, struggling to come up with a first sentence, these writers are busy polishing off story after story and novel after novel. Despite producing work that may seem effortless, all of them have a simple technique for fending off writer's block: the writing exercise. In Now Write!, Sherry Ellis collects the personal writing exercises of today's best writers and lays bare the secret to their success. - In "The Photograph," Jill McCorkle divulges one of her tactics for handling material that takes plots in a million different directions; - National Book Award-nominee Amy Bloom offers "Water Buddies," an exercise for writers practicing their craft in workshops; - Steve Almond, author of My Life in Heavy Metal and Candyfreak, provides a way to avoiding purple prose in "The Five-Second Shortcut to Writing in the Lyric Register"; - and eighty-three more of the country's top writers disclose their strategies for creating memorable prose. Complemented by brief commentary from the authors themselves, the exercises in Now Write! are practical and hands-on. By encouraging writers to shamelessly steal proven techniques that have yielded books which have won National Book Awards, Pulitzers, and Guggenheim grants, Now Write! inspires the aspiring writer to write now.

Book excerpt: Teenage girls tell their most urgent stories, punctuated by inspiration and advice from Zadie Smith, Roxane Gay, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Gloria Steinem, Alice Walker, and more of today's great writers. "Important work . . . A beautiful example of what happens when you let girls write and share it with the world." —Samhita Mukhopadhyay, Teen Vogue Girls Write Now: Two Decades of True Stories from Young Female Voices offers a brave and timely portrait of teenage-girl life in the United States over the past twenty years. They're working part-time jobs to make ends meet, deciding to wear a hijab to school, sharing a first kiss, coming out to their parents, confronting violence and bullying, and immigrating to a new country while holding onto their heritage. Through it all, these young writers tackle issues of race, gender, poverty, sex, education, politics, family, and friendship. Together their narratives capture indelible snapshots of the past and lay bare hopes, insecurities, and wisdom for the future. Interwoven is advice from great women writers—Roxane Gay, Francine Prose, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Zadie Smith, Quiara Alegria Hudes, Janet Mock, Gloria Steinem, Lena Dunham, Mia Alvar, and Alice Walker—offering guidance to a young reader about where she's been and where she might go. Inspiring and informative, Girls Write Now belongs in every school, library and home, adding much-needed and long-overdue perspectives on what it is to be young in America.

Book excerpt: It's so natural and easy to have better handwriting. WRITE NOW is a self-instructional course in modern italic handwriting, containing everything you need to improve the legibility, ease and look of your handwriting -- a complete workbook for adults and professionals. This popular book in the United States is now available internationally with this new edition. Improve the legibility, ease and look of your handwriting with this complete workbook for adults and professionals. Learn a fast, efficient and practical handwriting style that eliminates the loops and flourishes of conventional cursive. Italic is a modern handwriting system based on Italian Renaissance letterforms that are highly suited to rapid and legible writing, where rhythmic patterns follow the natural movement of the hand. Italic's handsome letters are as easy to write as they are to read. Send handwritten notes you can be proud of. Friends and business associates will appreciate receiving legible and distinctive handwritten messages. Poor handwriting isn't your fault. The looped cursive handwriting most of us were taught was simply not designed to accomplish the necessary combination of legibility, speed, and ease. WRITE NOW is a self-instructional course in modern italic handwriting. A complete program for adults. Contains instructions, practice exercises and tips. The new edition includes a supplementary section with a complete review of basic and cursive italic. An easy way to develop a better hand at your own pace. Write directly in the book. No special tools are required -- just your favorite pen or pencil. Includes instruction in edged-pen writing (edged pen required for this section). Also includes the historical development of letters. Entire book is handwritten. "It's a breakthrough at last!" -- Betty Edwards, PhD, author of Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain "When one consciously chooses to communicate, this remarkable script forces the writer to think more clearly, fostering greater mental discipline and organization. Italic handwriting is legible and handsome - I find it soul-satisfying. I recommend Write Now - the book to use. Long live legibility!" -- Paul O. Jacobs, M.D. "Write Now by Barbara Getty and Inga Dubay is the best book on italic handwriting -- or any handwriting -- I've come across. Handsomely handwritten, wondrously clear, easy to use, and even witty, WRITE NOW is the perfect resource for anyone who wants to learn Italic or (as I did) improve a deteriorated script." -- Kitty Burns Florey, author Script & Scribble: The Rise and Fall Of Handwriting "The hospital staff calls it a miracle. I can now communicate my ideas to other physicians. My wife tells me she can read my love letters. All of this accomplished by improving the legibility of my handwriting with Getty-Dubay." -- Stephen Caplan, MD International edition 101 pages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Censored. Repressed. Subdued. Bound. Muted. No more. In a world pushed to the precipice of change, in a society that values the tried and true over the dynamic and new, what does it mean to be unmuted? In this anthology, a chorus of young women and gender-expansive teens give voice to fear and silence, hold nothing back, and demand justice. To be unmuted right now requires a new brand of bravery and these writers show us how it’s done. Using stories, poems, essays, fiction, drama, interviews, and more, they report on a global pandemic, a climate crisis, and the movement for racial equity. They also invite us on their personal journeys through the labyrinth of young adulthood: feeling the rich soil of a neighborhood garden between their fingers; traveling through time in search of their parents; inhaling the charged air where young love is brewing. For twenty-three years, the nationally award-winning nonprofit Girls Write Now has broken down the barriers of gender, race, age, and poverty, elevating the voices of writers who are too often not heard—or worse, silenced. Girls Write Now is the first writing and mentoring organization for girls and gender expansive youth of color, ranking today as one of the top programs nationwide for driving social-emotional growth for youth.

Book excerpt: In partnership with Dutton Books, Amazon Literary Partnership, and Feminist Press, Girls Write Now On the Other Side of Everything: 2023 Anthology is a multi-genre showcase of the best writing from today’s next-gen voices and leaders. Do you know what it’s like to communicate with your family across a salty ocean’s divide? Do you want the sun and moon to enter your home with stories written in embers? Do you seek voices that will shatter expectations? Welcome to the other side of everything. It’s the other side of silence, the other side of childhood, the other side of hate, the other side of indifference, it’s the other side of sides, where the binary breaks down. It’s a new paradigm, a destination, a different perspective, a mindset, a state of openness, the space between the endless folds in your forehead, hopes for tomorrow, and reflections on the past. This anthology of diverse voices is an everything bagel of literary genres and love songs, secrets whispered in the dark of night, conversations held with ancestors under the sea.
