The Attic Experience"I feel like I have turned a corner. While I used to write for myself only, now I'm finding there is an end-use for all this work, and an audience! The interesting thing with The Attic workshops I have attended is that we rarely talk about the mechanics of getting published. The workshops are totally focused on improving writing. The instructors' wealth of experience, and the examples that draw on literature from around the world, make for lively and productive work sessions. Most of all, the Attic is a fun and safe place to push your boundaries and improve your writing. Publication seems to be an unintended consequence." 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
