Overview

Writers are not "born", they are self-made. Driven by the need to transform personal experience and perception into meaningful and moving stories, they master the alchemy of expression through the power of words. Writing teacher and artist Caroline Joy Adams understands this power. In The Power to Write, she gives you the inspiration to pursue your dream of writing and the practical tools you need to make that dream a reality.

In this gentle and supportive guide, you'll discover the seven keys to blending the emotional truth of your story with the technical demands of good writing. Step by easy step, you'll learn how to perceive within yourself the power to write, create a compelling opening sentence or paragraph that launches you into your story, and take your reader on an emotional journey. You'll also learn what questions to ask as your story unfolds, how to enrich your prose with sensuous details, and how to develop your own unique writing voice. And you'll learn how to gather the courage to share your work with others.

Many can write, but few do. Step away from the crowd and into that intimate space in which your creative talent springs to life. Discover The Power to Write!.

Caroline Joy Adams is the author of A Woman of Wisdom and the creator of Inspirations, a line of inspirational gifts that feature her trademark calligraphic style and art. She has taught art at Harvard, Tufts, and MIT, and has held writing workshops around the United States.
