In Your Own Voice by Bernard Selling
Life story writing encourages writers to draw on material they know best their own experiences to create vivid, compelling stories. The techniques described here are especially helpful in schools because, as the author says,Those who explore their experiences through life story writing are in a much better position to commence analytic work than those who do not.Composing from Within: A Unique Approach to Writing Your Life Stories, Bernard Selling's first book, was released by Hunter House in 1988 and has sold over 65,000 copies. It is now in its third edition. In Your Own Voice, a student's guide to improving writing techniques and skills; Character Awareness, The Art of Seeing; and The Duke's Musician and Predators, two novels of intrigue set in the Italian Renaissance. Selling, a professional creative writing instructor, has led Writing From Within workshops for teachers, writers, individuals in recovery, and those seeking more self-awareness. He's also taught English and humanities at the USAF Academy in Colorado Springs, as well as composition and literature at Loyola Marymount University, West Los Angeles College, and UCLA Extension. He has given talks in the United States and Europe, and has taught his writing approaches to instructors from New Hampshire to Texas along the Eastern Seaboard.
He has also collaborated with the Eckenroth Foundation, a German educational foundation that supports young German writers. Selling is a resident of Topanga Canyon, California.
