THE CREATIVE COMPASS: WRITING YOUR WAY FROM INSPIRATION TO PUBLICATION
Book ID/图书代码： 06375013B65671
English Summary/英文概要： How can I become more disciplined? How do I know if I’m talented? Should I self-publish? These are just a few of the perennial and contemporary questions addressed in this delightfully different guide. The authors — from different generations and writing genres — first help the reader assess where they are on their path. They then walk aspiring writers through five universal stages — Dream, Draft, Develop, Refine, and Share. While these stages apply to writers of every stripe, the emphasis is always on the reader navigating his or her own challenges, process, and goals. Insight-producing prompts and the wisdom of diverse artists (from Steinbeck and Thoreau to Spike Lee, Marilyn French, and Tom Clancy) help make every writer’s journey of creation as rewarding as its destination.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 我怎样才能变得更有纪律？我怎么知道自己是否有天赋？我应该自己出版书吗？这些只是这本令人愉快的独特指南中长期存在的、当代的一小部分问题。来自不同时代和不同写作风格的作者首先帮助读者评估他们的发展方向。然后，他们带领有抱负的作家走过五个常规的阶段——梦想、起草、发展、完善和分享。虽然这些阶段适用于各种类型的作家，但重点始终是读者应对自己的挑战、过程和目标。从斯坦贝克和梭罗到斯派克·李、玛丽莲·弗伦奇和汤姆·克兰西等不同艺术家的洞察力和智慧使每一位作家的创作之旅都能走向最终的成功（WYL）

“Thoughtful, thorough, and practical in its application, this is an important work on the creative process, and on the craft, business, and magic of writing.”
— from the foreword by Terry Brooks, bestselling fantasy novelist
“A good book about writing will guide you like a torch. You finish it and you’ve learned some useful lessons; you feel enlightened. But a great writing book is hard to finish because it keeps exploding in your face. All it makes you want to do is write. Everything else: blown away. The Creative Compass is like that, a box of inspiring dynamite. And of course that’s just what you want. Boom! Get back to your writing!”
— Steven Goldsberry, creative writing professor and author of The Writer’s Book of Wisdom
“This is a wonderfully insightful guide to the art of transforming ideas and stories into books. It presents old narrative and stylistic truths in a new, highly imaginative way.”
— Stephen Kinzer, author of The Brothers: John Foster Dulles, Allen Dulles, and Their Secret World War
