Download or read book Write Where We Are written by Denise M. Baran-Unland and published by Denise Unland. This book was released on 2022-10-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You want to see my heart? Touch my spirit? Listen to my dreams? Wrap your arms around my past? Grasp the air for my future? Well, you can. The good news is you can. In fact, you are, right now. The really good news is, there's nothing especially magical or difficult or expensive about it, it's as simple holding on to this book in your hands. For between the covers of this book - the sixth "Write Where You Are" anthology, are the hearts and spirits and dreams and haunted pasts and glittering futures of everyone who chose to contribute a poem, short story, long-form fiction, personal essay, and illustration to this collection from the Joliet area's preeminent writers' group. This collection, like its five siblings proves that everyone has a story to tell from wherever they are on their life's road. That their story is unique and special and deserves telling as much as anyone's. And that like other forms of magic, writing, when done well - with courage, conviction, a smattering of skill, some dedicated practice, and a touch of commitment to get you over the bump's in life's road -- does what all magic does: it transforms the very air surrounding the audience as much as it does the act of breathing for the writer. Money doesn't matter. Ego doesn't matter (or shouldn't.) All that matters is the power of the tale. The heart that supplies the love, or endured the loss that powers the tale. Or the imagination that steers the ship. We proudly share ours with you, the reader, and hope from the bottom of our literary souls that you find whatever it is you're looking for, and/or need, in our work. Enjoy!

Download or read book An American Summer written by Alex Kotlowitz and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020 J. ANTHONY LUKAS PRIZE WINNER From the bestselling author of There Are No Children Here, a richly textured, heartrending portrait of love and death in Chicago's most turbulent neighborhoods. The numbers are staggering: over the past twenty years in Chicago, 14,033 people have been killed and another roughly 60,000 wounded by gunfire. What does that do to the spirit of individuals and community? Drawing on his decades of experience, Alex Kotlowitz set out to chronicle one summer in the city, writing about individuals who have emerged from the violence and whose stories capture the capacity--and the breaking point--of the human heart and soul. The result is a spellbinding collection of deeply intimate profiles that upend what we think we know about gun violence in America. Among others, we meet a man who as a teenager killed a rival gang member and twenty years later is still trying to come to terms with what he's done; a devoted school social worker struggling with her favorite student, who refuses to give evidence in the shooting death of his best friend; the witness to a wrongful police shooting who can't shake what he has seen; and an aging former gang leader who builds a place of refuge for himself and his friends. Applying the close-up, empathic reporting that made There Are No Children Here a modern classic, Kotlowitz offers a piercingly honest portrait of a city in turmoil. These sketches of those left standing will get into your bones. This one summer will stay with you.

"Perhaps the writers in this anthology will be thoughtof as PP/FF writers. Perhaps poets, fiction writers, or followers of Orpheus. I would argue that strict adherence to given conventions of form and genre are delibilitating to a writer's creativity and do a disservice to readers. Genre is easier to teach, to quantify and review, but what does it have to do with creating new art?"--Peter Conners, from the introduction.

Download or read book The Best of Write Bloody Anthology written by Derrick Brown and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A little bit of poetry and a little bit of rock and roll. Write Bloody Publishing is a unique poetry press started in 2004 by traveling poet, musician, comedian, magician and former paratrooper, Derrick C. Brown. After spending the mid 1990s and early 2000s book touring throughout Europe and the U.S., Brown realized the untapped potential in the contemporary poetry market for authors who were hitting the road reading in bars, theaters and clubs. Authors had to learn the art of building fan-bases by putting on entertaining readings. Their work also had to sing on the page. The road rambling poet was brought back to life. Within these 250 pages are road stories, tour posters and photos as well as the best poems the press has put out in the last few decades. From Clint Smith to Andrea Gibson and Sarah Kay, Write Bloody has paved the way for generations of poets to come.
Download or read book A Harp in the Stars written by Randon Billings Noble and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2021-10 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a lyric essay? An essay that has a lyrical style? An essay that plays with form in a way that resembles poetry more than prose? Both of these? Or something else entirely? The works in this anthology show lyric essays rely more on intuition than exposition, use image more than narration, and question more than answer. But despite all this looseness, the lyric essay still has responsibilities—to try to reveal something, to play with ideas, or to show a shift in thinking, however subtle. The whole of a lyric essay adds up to more than the sum of its parts. In A Harp in the Stars, Randon Billings Noble has collected lyric essays written in four different forms—flash, segmented, braided, and hermit crab—from a range of diverse writers. The collection also includes a section of craft essays—lyric essays about lyric essays. And because lyric essays can be so difficult to pin down, each contributor has supplemented their work with a short meditation on this boundary-breaking form.
