<P>Am I a writer? Where should I get ideas? Is my writing any good? How did my favorite authors make it big? The act of writing is a daunting task for many people, and becoming a <Q>writer</Q> means so much more than putting pen to paper. The author embraces the questions that plague writers by turning to some of the best-known authors of our time. With encouragement, advice, and refreshing honesty, writers discuss their own beginnings, struggles, and victories in a manner that will make readers say, <Q>I can do that.</Q> In this book, readers will hear from Anne Lamott about what she means by writing to heal herself, from David Brooks about what it takes to craft an informed opinion, from Tracy Kidder about the need for revision, and from Elizabeth Gilbert about being humble. Among the many other featured writers are Jeannette Walls, Cornel West, Nick Hornby, George Plimpton, Susan Orlean, and more. Bringing together interviews from 30 years of the annual Writer's Symposium by the Sea, the book reveals writers' motives, connects the dots to their past, and acknowledges their struggles. Often beginning with, <Q>I've never said this publicly before…</Q>, these treasured authors' revelations give aspiring writers of every level the courage and support necessary to live the writing life.</P>
