Produktbeschreibung
"On Permission: A Manifesto for Writers, Artists, and Dreamers is for anyone with a creative impulse, a resource to be reached for during times both fertile and not. The creative process often unfolds, albeit haphazardly, in a fairly predictable fashion: the impulse to create, the anxiety of starting, and-hopefully-the making of art. Along the way, a million different things can derail the process. Exploring subjects such as "The Myth of Perfection." "The Specter of Silence," and "Hubris and Humility," the goal of On Permission: A Manifesto for Writers, Artists, and Dreamers is to inspire and guide creatives to a place of transformation, of freedom from the constraints of shame and fear in all their forms, and to the understanding and recognition of the ethics of story-making, art-making, truth-telling, permission, and creative soul-saving. While especially good for writers, On Permission is also for creatives working in visual art, music, and beyond. Embedded within the essays are inspiring quotes from Annie Dillard, Zadie Smith, Jane Kenyon, Andrew Wyeth, Stanley Kunitz, Elizabeth Gilbert, Jericho Brown, Jacqueline Woodson, Wallace Stegner, Vivian Gornick, Ross Gay, Cheryl Strayed, Anne Lamott, George Saunders, Melissa Pritchard, Sally Mann, Dani Shapiro, Adrienne Rich, St. Augustine, and others"--
