The New York Times bestselling author of the beloved classic How to Read Literature Like a Professor teaches you how to write everything from a report for your community association to a meaningful memoir in this masterful and engaging writing guide.
Combing anecdotes and hard-won lessons from decades of teaching and writing—and invoking everyone from Hemingway to your third-grade teacher—retired professor Thomas C. Foster guides you through the basics of writing. With How to Write Like a Writer you’ll learn a practical writing process, how to organize your thoughts, construct first drafts, and (not incidentally) keep you in your chair so that inspiration can come to visit.
With warmth and wit, Foster shows you how to get into (and over) your best self, how to find your voice, and how to know when, if ever, a piece of work is done.
Packed with enlightening anecdotes, highlighted with lists and bullet points, this invaluable guide reveals how writers work their magic, provides essential writing tips, and reminds us that we all—for better or worse, whether we mean to or not—are known by what we put on paper or screen, both our thoughts and our words.
This is the practical, encouraging guide every writer needs to find their confidence and master the page.
- Overcoming Writing Anxiety: Move past the paralysis of the blank page with Foster’s warm and witty guidance, learning how to get into (and over) your best self.
- The Craft of Writing: Go beyond the basics with lessons on everything from constructing first drafts to knowing when a piece of work is truly finished.
- Develop Your Personal Style: Learn to inject your unique personality and intelligence into every sentence, moving beyond rigid rules to find the voice that is truly yours.
- A Masterclass from a Master Teacher: Benefit from decades of wisdom from the beloved professor and bestselling author of How to Read Literature Like a Professor, packed with anecdotes from Hemingway to your third-grade teacher.
