Story Is A State of Mind
Sarah Selecky
Cultivate a state of mind to help your writing flow with acclaimed writing instructor and Scotiabank Giller Prize finalist Sarah Selecky.
For over a decade, Sarah Selecky has been running an online writing school as a compassionate alternative to MFA programs for writers of all genres who want to write well. Story Is a State of Mind is the logical next step: a gentle guide to help writers strengthen and tap their inner resources in service of a limitless writing practice.
For Selecky, writing is both an art and a contemplative practice, and her approach as an instructor is literary and intuitive. Writing exercises and guided meditations are interwoven with practical advice and heartfelt encouragement to help writers find a groove, and to build awareness, confidence, and technique. Story Is a State of Mind goes beyond offering solutions to individual writing problems, and helps writers settle into a mindset that allows them to see possibilities and discover new connections in their work-and beyond.
This is a book that encourages presence, urges us to slow down and get centred, and asks us to embrace a wholeminded writing practice through study, craft, and play. Pair it with Sarah Selecky's Story Is a State of Mind Deck of 50 writing prompts for maximum inspiration!
