Hi - I am hosting an 8-week lab on writing your first book proposal -- fiction or non-fiction. Would love to see you there! Eileen https://www.stage32.com/education/products/write-your-book-proposal-in-8-weeks.
This past week I finished reading "The Instrumentalist" by Harriet Constable.
It's fantastic, and I highly recommend it. It's the best novel I've read in years!
It's based on the true story of an orphan girl (child of a teenage prostitute left at an orphanage) who became a master violinist in the 1700s.
SUPER recommend this!

I had previously followed Chris Vogler's "The Writer's Journey" for years after seeing him at lunch time lecture when I worked at Disney Feature Animation. I...

Will read this. I was 16/17 in 1986 and remember the year well, failed drivers tests, first hangovers, erections for no reason, etc etc etc.
Enjoy reading it! I highly recommend it!

For those who know (or don't know) Bart the Bear, he's a world-famous bear actor, staring in many films, who lived right in the center of Utah! A new book was published detailing his life and the movies he's been on (and yes, lots of cute animal pictures, including baby ones). A fun read if you need...
