Popular author Nava Atlas explores 'the writing life' of famous women writers in this beautifully designed and illustrated book. The journals, letters, and diaries of twelve celebrated women writers, including Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Madeleine L'Engle, Anais Nin, George Sand, Edith Wharton, and Virginia Woolf, illuminate the author's creative process. Nava's own insightful commentary provides reassuring tips and advice - on such subjects as dealing with rejection, money matters, and balancing family with the solitary writing process - that will resonate with women writers in today's world. With 100+ vintage photos, illustrations, and ephemera, this book is a splendid gift book for writers.
