The Power to Write: A Writing Workshop in a Book Book

Writers are not born, they are self-made. Driven by the need to transform personal experience and perception into meaningful and moving stories, they master the alchemy of expression through the power of words. Writing teacher and artist Caroline Joy Adams understands the power of the written word. In The Power to Write, she gives you both the inspiration to pursue your dream of writing and the practical tools you need to make that dream a reality.

In this gentle and supportive guide, you ll discover the seven keys to blending the emotional truth of your story with the technical demands of good writing. Step by easy step, you ll learn how to perceive within yourself the power to write, create a compelling opening sentence or paragraph that launches you into your story, and take your reader on an emotional journey.
