UntitledTown Book and Author Festival

Gathering ideas from contemporary writers like Elizabeth Gilbert, Anne Lamott, Steve Almond, and David Sedaris, this craft talk will examine common misconceptions about writers and the writing process—that talent matters more than persistence, that inspiration reigns supreme, that you have it or you don’t. Writers will leave with inspiration and practical techniques for improving their own writing practice, able to generate more freely, revise more deeply, and better understand how creativity works.
