Overcoming Creatives Blocks
The Ambitious Writer’s Guide to Overcoming Creative Blocks and Building a Writing Routine that Works not only breaks down the components of a creative block—what it is and isn’t, how it affects us, and how we can move past it—but also offers insights into the creative process, inspiration for writers at any stage, and tips for kick-starting a stalled writing practice.
So if you’ve hit that proverbial wall in your current project, if the new project doesn’t want to transfer from your head to the page, or even if you want to safeguard yourself so the creative blocks are fewer and farther between, then this book was written with you in mind.
Editing and Proofreading
The Ambitious Writer’s Guide to Editing and Proofreading (and Ensuring Your Writing is Audience-Ready) is designed for the serious writer who wants to learn more about the difference between editing and proofreading, the different levels (or lenses) of the editing process, how to locate common sentence structure and word errors, and editing/proofreading strategies that will guide them through the revision process.
