Going beyond the typical "how to write" book, The Mindful Writer illuminates the creative process: where writing and creativity originate, how mindfulness plays into work, how to cultivate good writing habits, how to grow as a writer and a person, and what it means to live a life dedicated to the craft of writing. There's not a writer alive, novice or master, who will not benefit from this book and fall in love with it. Cover to cover, this wise little book is riveting and delightful.
The Mindful Writer will be a book that readers will turn to again and again as a source inspiration, guidance, and support.
"Advice books for writers are a dime a dozen but Moore provides a fresh approach with this melding of Buddhist teachings and sage career and life lessons for those who devote their lives to the written word...this is a compact book of practical and philosophical truths for both novice and veteran writers."
"There is something fresh and undeniably appealing about these bite-sized morsels, which expand the writer's experience to a broader, human one."
"In short, The Mindful Writer is an indispensable title for anyone who wants to better understand the relationship between writing and mindfulness."
"Never be without it--as reference, as balm, as talisman; to refresh, encourage, comfort, and instruct. It's a trove of treasures. Professor Moore--insightful, funny, and true--cheers us on like the teacher and friend he is."
