There’ll be practical tips on the pleasures and pitfalls of research, coping with false starts and setbacks, as well as ways to use advice and support from writing groups, editors, and agents. She’ll reflect on the importance of process rather than product, with suggestions for using freewriting and morning pages to spark ideas.
