Writing Your Self is a comprehensive resource for anyone who wants
to explore personal material in their writing. It examines how many
writers use personal subject matter in memoirs, poems, journals and
novels. Part One focuses on universal experiences including
childhood, identity, adult relationships and loss as well as more
specific issues such as displacement and disability, physical and
mental illness and abuse. Throughout the book writers, including
the authors, give frank, firsthand accounts of their own
experiences and how they have tackled writing about them. Part Two
begins with a series of techniques for approaching personal
material which include practical exercises and examples. It also
considers the differences between raw and finished writing and the
validity of each and offers ideas for developing work. With its
wide range of writers and the exciting possibilities it offers,
Writing Your Self is a definitive book for exploring personal
literature and life writing.
