advance blurbs for The Write Life
Some delightful back cover blurbs have come in for
my next nonfiction book, The Write Crowd:Literary Citizenship & The Writing Life, forthcoming in Dec ’14 from
Bloomsbury:
"Lori A. May's
The Write Crowd reminds us that writing need not be such a lonely life,
solitary as it is. The literary universe provides limitless opportunities to
help other writers, meet other writers, and support one another. Type an
e-mail, review a book, start a reading series, form your own small press: help
keep literature alive and strengthen your own connections and understanding. An
indispensable book for those new to writing careers and a valuable reminder for
those who've faced the blank page for years and years."
-- Dinty W. Moore, Professor and Director of Creative Writing, Ohio University, and author of The Mindful Writer
"A thoughtful, much-needed exploration of the relationship between the individual writing life and the larger community of writers and readers. Lori A. May draws from her own experience and that of many other writers and editors to offer a comprehensive view of the necessary phenomenon we only recently have come to call literary citizenship. The Write Crowd offers specific and authentic ways--some quick and simple, others a greater investment--through which writers can be strong literary citizens."
-- Anna Leahy, Associate Professor of English, Chapman University, and author of Constituents of Matter, editor of Power and Identity in the Creative Writing Classroom, and editor of TAB: The Journal of Poetry & Poetics
