Book Overview
An Annie Dillard-style writing book that follows the writer's life as much as her philosophy about creativity and writing. Aspiring and accomplished writers will find a place to breathe, in both the memoir-stories and tips that seamlessly address major aspects of creative life-from inspiration to individual voice; from helpful habits, networking and publishing, to reasons we create and write.Says the first chapter, "There are so many things standing in my way this morning, I can hardly begin. Yet I've heard there are rumors of water. Maybe that is enough." And apparently it is.--- named a Best Book of 2011, Englewood Review of Books and Hearts & Minds Books

I loved this book. This is one I will read again and again. It’s hard to not feel a bit lost as a mom who always has a creative side. Barkat not only writes beautifully, but shows how beautiful life is when we slow down and look around.
