Brande Dorothea; Gardner John
Becoming a Writer
Los Angeles New York: Jeremy P. Tarcher. 1981. Softcover. Brand New; Marfree acidfree fresh prtg Fine gift qual; not marked-in clearance or discard. Mails from NYC usually within 12 hours. ; 8.0 x 5.0 x 0.5 inches; 186 pages; Online Rev. : Even in 1934 Dorothea Brande knew that most writers didn't need another book on "technique"-- & this before so many more would be published. No she realized as John Gardner notes in his foreword "the root problems of the writer are personality problems " & thus her wise book is designed to simply help you get over yourself & start writing with techniques ranging from a simple declaration to write every day at a fixed time --no matter what-- to exercises that come close to inventing the TM & self-actualization movements that would follow a few decades later. Best book yet for inspiring the writer Aug 16 2000 Reviewer: Susie Rigsby Mt. Vernon IN USA -#I have purchased several books on writing fiction & non-fiction. And I would have to say most of the books that I have purchased I did find useful in assisting me w/ what I wanted to know. But after reading "Becoming a Writer" I felt the warmest type of inspiration. Brande came from the 30s era when she didn't have to contend w/ the computer editors that only read two or three pages of a book before they throw it in the trash pile or the pressures of a fast moving market. Yet she knew full well what every writer experiences & needs to be told. And she told it quite well in this book. I loved it. I keep it next to my computer for reference. I recommend this wonderful book to anyone that has intentions of writing no matter what area they are trying to enter. It is just great. #The key to the writer's magic. Dec 21 2001#Reviewer: mermaid United Kingdon -#Becoming a Writer is unlike any other writing book on the market today. As Brande says in the intro even back in 1934 there were several books on writing & most of them are about the riles of storytelling organisational problems etc. This book is different. You�ll find nothing about plot dialogue structure beginnings endings here. Nothing about nuts & bolts of writing. #Brande is trying to reach the writer who is not yet sure he is a writer. The shy insecure artist who believes that somehow there is a magic to writing a magic that other successful writers have & which has somehow eluded him. #Brande goes on to talk about the need to cultivate spontaneity & innocence of eye as well as the ability to respond freshly to new scenes & to old scenes as though they were new & to see "traits & characteristics as though each were new-minted from the hand of God". #Stories Brande says are formed in the unconscious mind which must flow freely & richly bringing at demand all the" treasures of memory all the emotions scenes incidents intimations of character & relationship" which is stored away beyond our awareness. #This book is about tapping that rich store in the unconscious. #These days there are all kinds of workshops & books about creativity tapping the unconscious using meditation to reach the inner artist & so on. The thing about Brande is that she said it first & said it best. This book is pioneer work; in 1934 we were not yet informed on the validity of "right-brained" thinking. She then goes on to talk about the interplay betw the unconscious & the conscious for the latter does have a role to play.#The unconscious says Brande is shy elusive & unwieldy but it is possible to learn to tap it at will & even to direct it. The conscious mind on the other hand is meddlesome & arrogant but it can be made subservient to the inborn talent through training. What wonderful words! What courage they installed in me when I first read them! #The rest of the book tells us how exactly to tap the wealth of the unconscious. She provides exercises & practical examples of what can be done to get the those buried stories richly flowing. She plants that seed of knowledge in your soul which will tell you "This is it" & will catapult you - as if by magic! - out of the slough of despondant into the actual work of a writer. . Jeremy P. Tarcher paperback
