The Attic Experience"The Attic taught me how to be ambitious for my work: how to think like a poet; respect forms and their rules; the importance of reading, in my case, all kinds of poetry, not just my favorite poets. I learned how to mine a critique group for direction in how to write stronger poems and to keep pushing my voice and to take risks." Order a signed copy
Based on methods developed exclusively at the Attic by founder and director David Biespiel, Every Writer Has a Thousand Faces cracks open the creative process and challenges traditional assumptions about writing that can stifle creativity. Both beginning and experienced writers—as well as artists, musicians, dancers, and anyone else on a creative path—will benefit from this elegant, surprising, and fresh perspective. An essential book for any writer's library. Learn more / Read an excerpt / Order a signed copy
