These Precious Days is another beautifully heartfelt essay collection from Ann Patchett. It was a delight to read, especially the title essay.
What can I say about Bird by Bird that hundreds of aspiring writers before me haven’t already said? Required reading for anyone who writes — or wants to.
Languages of Truth is engaging and entertaining, although certain chapters will only be for certain people. Don’t be afraid to get a copy and skip around to the essays that interest you!

Before and After the Book Deal is a helpful, conversational, informative breakdown of all the things that go into writing and publishing a book. As a book reviewer, I found it so interesting!
Meander, Spiral, Explode is a quick, fun, interesting look at all the different patterns that appear in narrative.
