COLE JONI B
Toxic Feedback- Helping Writers Survive And Thrive
University Press of New England Lebanon NH: 2006. Softcover. Brand new book. How writers can make the best of even the worst criticism. All writers have stories of how some teacher workshop participant friend or spouse gave them commentary that undermined their confidence and their writing. This "toxic feedback" has tainted feedback's reputation as a whole causing too many writers to avoid or mismanage this valuable resource. In the first book to focus on this vital but delicate dynamic Joni B. Cole applies first-person experience real-life teaching examples and her own unique ability to entertain while reaffirming the many merits of feedback. Cole shows writers how to use feedback to energize and inform their writing at every stage of the process. For feedback providers she delivers insights into constructive criticism and the difference between being heard and being obnoxious. Finally she offers advice to workshops and critique groups on how to thrive in this collective experience. In addition established writers ranging from Julia Alvarez and Khaled Hosseini to Gregory Maguire and Jodi Picoult share their own feedback stories - from useful to inspiring to deranged - underscoring Cole's message that feedback plays a critical role in every writer's success. Through a mixture of instruction anecdotes and moral support Cole manages to detoxify the feedback process with humor and without laying blame inspiring both sides of the interaction to make the most of this powerful resource. The Table of Contents of this book is as follows: Every Writer Has a Story � Rethinking Feedback � What is Feedback � EQ � Sarah Stewart Taylor: "Wow! This could be my job." � Getting Feedback � Is It You . . . or Is It Them � Processing Feedback � Samina Ali: "I would have sold my soul." � Twenty-Two Years � Editing Your Editor � Ernest Hebert: "I wanted writing to be easy for me and it wasn't." � Feedback Hotlines � "Danger Danger Will Robinson!" � Jennifer Crusie: "A story is a collaboration between a writer and a reader." � The Club � Waiting for Feedback � Archer Mayor: "Emotion is a blinding force." � The Value of Toxic Feedback � Giving Feedback � Preventing Mental Meltdowns � The Power of Positive Feedback � Grace Paley: "My nature wasn't ambitious enough to go ahead on my own." � A Right Way and a Wrong Way � Can You Please Be More Specific! � Khaled Hosseini: "Even if the book is good no one is going to want to publish it." � The Moment of Truth � Common Human Decency � Don D. B. Johnson: "My best advice is to marry well." � Editorial Biases � Get That Look Off Your Face � Ted Kooser: "We all serve communities." � Small Miracles � In the Company of Writers � Hey Let's Put On a Workshop! � How to Have a Good Group Discussion � Gregory Maguire: "I don't revise in an architectural way." � Who's in Charge � The Top Ten Rules of a Successful Writing Group � Julia Alvarez: "My dream of becoming a writer was a fool's dream." � Meet the World's Worst Workshop � Publishing � Jodi Picoult: "I call our relationship my second marriage." � Can Creative Writing Be Taught � Crystal Wilkinson: "Processing feedback has to be a meditation." � In Appreciation of Bad Writing � Epilogue: Feedback and the Real World � Acknowledgments � About the Author Author Photo. A professional writer and editor Joni B. Cole is creator of the This Day series including This Day: Diaries from American Women 2003 and This Day in the Life: Diaries from Women Across America 2005 and Water Cooler Diaries: Women across America Share Their Day at Work 2008. She is a writing instructor and frequent speaker at universities and writing conferences around the country and co-founder of the Writer's Center of White River Junction Vermont. "Drawing on her experience as the leader of a long-running writing workshop Cole addresses the delicate process of giving and receiving constructive criticism. She offers helpful techniques for writers who want to respond productively to one another's work incorporate such responses into their own writing and perhaps even run their own workshops. Though the focus is on informal settings and exchanges among friends Cole's suggestions are useful for students and teachers as well."�Library Journal University Press of New England, Lebanon NH: 2006 paperback

Distributed for Martino Publishing Mansfield Centre for Oak Knoll Press New Castle: 2006. Hardcover. Brand new book. Dr. Jennings has brought together a splendid collection of mediaeval and Renaissance initials and the 170 pages of facsimiles containing over 1300 specimens from the presses of Germany Italy France Switzerland Spain the Netherlands and England give a survey of the whole subject which could hardly except in certain details be bettered�. No book on initials hitherto produced has been so rich in beautiful things and the author has wisely included so far as possible examples hitherto unpublished. The reproductions moreover are exceedingly good. The late gothic printers achieved in this department of the decoration of books as in others results that no later generation has excelled�" From Review Article in The Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs.

EARNEST CORINNE & RUSSELL WITH ROSENBERRY EDWARD L
Flying Leaves & One-sheets: Pennsylvania German Broadsides Fraktur And Their Printers
Oak Knoll Press New Castle: 2005. Hardcover. Brand new book. This work is a well-illustrated history of the Pennsylvania German printing traditions as represented by over 130 of their broadsides and fraktur specimens. Printing in both German fraktur black letter and English these intrepid early printers produced thousands of flyers posters and instructional pieces in varieties so extensive as to defy categorization. Their legal documents such as marriage baptism and birth certificates with their colorfully primitive motifs and borders are highly collected today. However their other works are also explored and explained in this ground-breaking work. More than 130 color and black & white works are illustrated in detail with dates printers and purpose. Edward Rosenberry said in a review that "The first step in the recovery and understanding of a cultural heritage is to collect surviving evidence and arrange it in a systematic way for interpretation. Flying Leaves and One-Sheets starts that process. Readers of this book will gain insight into the folk-ways of the Pennsylvania German ethnic group and the impact it exercised upon American culture before 1876. This work introduces Pennsylvania German broadsides to the American public. It is a scholar's treat and a pleasure for all who look within. Oak Knoll Press, New Castle: 2005 hardcover
