In \u003ci\u003eSeveral Short Sentences About Writing\u003c\/i\u003e, he sets out to help us unlearn that \"wisdom\"--about genius, about creativity, about writer's block, topic sentences, and outline--and understand that writing is just as much about thinking, noticing, and learning what it means to be involved in the act of writing. There is no gospel, no orthodoxy, no dogma in this book. Instead it is a gathering of starting points in a journey toward lively, lucid, satisfying self-expression.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVerlyn Klinkenborg\u003c\/b\u003e is a member of the editorial board of \u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eNew York Times, \u003c\/i\u003e to which he also contributes meditations about his farm in upstate New York, collected in \u003ci\u003eThe Rural Life.\u003c\/i\u003e His other books include \u003ci\u003eMaking Hay, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Last Fine Time, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eTimothy; or, Notes of an Abject Reptile.\u003c\/i\u003e Klinkenborg has a Ph.D. in English literature from Princeton University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8 x 5.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 09, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52694932881715,"sku":"9780307279415","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/UGcyZEUwU21sYXdWcmprOTQ1ekZyQT09.webp?v=1763078247","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/several-short-sentences-about-writing-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
