The Writer's Portable Mentor by Priscilla Long

The Writer's Portable Mentor by Priscilla Long

Suitable for both beginning and advanced writers of fiction and nonfiction, The Writer's Portable Mentor: A Guide to Art, Craft, and the Writing Life distills 20 years of teaching and creative thought by the well-published author Priscilla Long. The Writer's Portable Mentor helps writers understand and incorporate the regular practices of virtuoso creators; provides a guide to structuring literary, journalistic, or fictional pieces or entire books; opens the door to the sentence strategies of the masters; provides tools for developing a poet's ear for use in prose; trains writers in the observation skills of visual artists; and guides them toward more effective approaches to getting their work into the world. Says Maya Sonenberg, Director of the Creative Writing Program at University of Washington, I have never seen anything quite like Priscilla Long's book. It presents a true alternative for the advanced writer.

Priscilla Long is the author of three books, including The Writer's Portable Mentor: A Guide to Art, Craft, and the Writing Life, and The Writer's Portable Mentor: A Guide to Art, Craft, and the Writing Life. Her work has appeared in the Southern Review, American Scholar, Smithsonian, Fourth Genre, and other publications.
