Find inspiration. Respect imperfection. Create peerless beauty.

By Richard R. Powell

Format: Paperback

Details

Most writers torture themselves pursuing the false and impossible goal of perfection. But there is another way-and an ancient Japanese aesthetic holds the secret. As Richard R. Powell explains in Wabi Sabi for Writers, when writers embrace the idea that imperfection has its own beauty, they also embrace their creativity-and their writing flourishes! This eloquent and thoughtful guide explores the unique Wabi Sabi approach to:
  • Inspiration-transforming strong feelings into art
  • Interest-understanding and stimulating the reader's motivation
  • Community-writer's groups and what they have to offer
  • Enlightenment-practicing Zen through writing
A striking follow-up to Wabi Sabi Simple, this thoughtful, engaging volume provides practical suggestions along with accessible philosophy to make the writing life more productive, peaceful, and fulfilling.

Richard R. Powell studied creative writing at the Kootenay School of Writing under such authors as Fred Wah, Audrey Thomas, Leon Rooke, Margaret Atwood, David McFadden, and John Newlove. He holds a certificate in biblical studies and works as executive secretary for the Island Christian Care Society.
