In this bold and exhilarating mix of memoir and writing guide,
Melissa Febos tackles the emotional, psychological, and physical
work of writing intimately while offering an utterly fresh
examination of the storyteller's life and the challenges it
presents. How do we write about the relationships that have formed
us? How do we describe our bodies, their desires and traumas? What
does it mean to have your writing, or living, dismissed as
"navel-gazing"-or else hailed as "so brave, so raw"? And to whom,
in the end, do our most intimate stories belong? Drawing on her
journey from aspiring writer to acclaimed author and writing
professor-via addiction and recovery, sex work and academia-Melissa
Febos has created a captivating guide to the writing life, and a
brilliantly unusual exploration of subjectivity, privacy, and the
power of divulgence. Candid and inspiring, Body Work will empower
readers and writers alike, offering ideas-and occasional notes of
caution-to anyone who has ever hoped to see their true self
reflecting back from the open page. -- .

Rooms of Their Own travels around the world examining the unique
spaces, habits and rituals in which famous writers created their
most notable works. The perennial question asked of all authors is,
'How do you write?'. What do they require of their room or desk? Do
they have favourite pens, paper or typewriters? And have they found
the perfect daily routine to channel their creativity? Crossing
centuries, continents and genres, Alex Johnson has pooled 50 of the
best writers and transports you to the heart of their writing rooms
- from attics and studies to billiard rooms and bathtubs. Discover
the ins and outs of how each great writer penned their famous
texts, and the routines and habits they perfected. Meet authors who
rely on silence and seclusion and those who need people, music and
whisky. Meet novelists who travel half-way across the world to a
luxury writing retreat, and others who just need an empty shed at
the bottom of the garden. Some are particular about pencils, inks,
paper and typewriters, and some will scribble on anything -
including the furniture. But whether they write in the library or
in cars, under trees, private islands, hotel rooms or towers - each
of these stories confirms that there is no 'best way' to write.
From James Baldwin, writing in the small hours of the morning in
his Paris apartment, to DH Lawrence writing at the foot of a
towering Ponderosa pine tree, to the Bronte sisters managing in a
crowded co-working space, this book takes us into the lives of some
of history's greatest ever writers, with each writing space
illustrated in evocative watercolour by James Oses. In looking at
the working lives of our favourite authors, bibliophiles will be
transported to other worlds, aspiring writers will find inspiration
and literature fans will gain deeper insight into their most-loved
authors.
Explore the world with your students and discover its wonders - all
while developing the English skills they need to become successful
global citizens. Through spectacular National Geographic video and
inspiring photography students will travel the globe, learning
about different countries, cultures, people, and their customs.
With clearly structured methodology and explicit grammar
instruction, this six-level primary series is packed with
fascinating facts that spark curiosity, personalisation activities
that get your students talking and new online resources that make
it even easier to bring the world to the classroom and the
classroom to life.
