The Attic Experience"One of the first things my instructor at the Attic said to my class--something I had never heard before--is that courage is the most important/needful possession of a writer. I absolutely recognized the truth of that. But then, throughout the course, the instructor also opened up the craft of writing to us, demystifying it. My instructor was about as hard-working as any I have ever run into. The classes were meticulously crafted. And, yes, they were fun & engaging. I plan to continue traveling this road as a writer (and perhaps may even publish!). But in any case it is no small satisfaction just to write. And thanks to the Attic for that." 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
