Description: Old Friend from Far Away --Natalie Goldberg
Twenty years ago Natalie Goldberg's classic Writing Down the Bones broke new ground in its approach to writing as a practice. Now, Old Friend from Far Away--her first book since Writing Down the Bones to focus solely on writing--reaffirms Goldberg's status as a foremost teacher of writing, and completely transforms the practice of writing memoir.
To write memoir, we must first know how to remember. Through timed, associative, and meditative exercises, Old Friend from Far Away guides you to the attentive state of thought in which you discover and open forgotten doors of memory . . . an innovative course full of practical consciousness, love, life, and death Old Friend welcomes aspiring writers of all levels and encourages them to find their unique voice to tell their stories.
Julia Cameron, author of The Artist's Waysays: "Inspired, passionate, and specific. The reader emerges as a writer--both energized and enlightened."
We're big fans of Natalie Goldberg at Ninth Moon. She's inspiring, practical, honest, an advocate of capturing those first naked-raw-wild thoughts. Consider this as a gift for a loved one as well as a beautiful addition to your own writer's bookshelf. Go ahead. Buy this book. (We double dog dare you.)
