Words and Wonder: A Guide to Becoming a Creative Writer

WORDS AND WONDER: A Guide to Becoming a Creative Writer is a practical guide for new and emerging writers. It gives insider advice on how to best enter and live a writerly life.

Using De Greff’s own varied experiences over the last ten plus years as an editor, journalist, instructor, and published author, WORDS AND WONDER was inspired by the number of times she got asked questions such as: * How do I find time to write?
* Should I get an MFA?
* How do I find an agent that’s right for me?
* Where does inspiration come from?

Throughout WORDS AND WONDER, readers are given professional and creative insight into De Greff’s journey from writing haphazardly in an emerging space to becoming an established and disciplined writer, as well as various methods and techniques to integrate more writing into their daily lives, how to tap into the creative flow state, and numerous De Greff Doors, or journaling prompts. This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of their current writing practices and habits (or lack thereof), as well as how to best produce material for publication and infuse more wonder into your life.
