Today I have a book for the writers out there, (not that readers can’t enjoy it too). Have you ever felt unworthy? Do you not find time everyday to pound out ten thousand or even just ten words on your manuscript? Does it feel like you’re just pretending to be a writer?
Then you need this book.
On this the eve before I go to attend a writers conference where I am not sell or pitching my book, I needed this. A reminder that publishing is not the goal of the writer. The writer writes for themselves, and they do it for the love of words.
Blurb:
A collection of love letters to creative souls.
For your inspiration and encouragement.
“There is a strange beauty in this lonely work; to create is to realize my connection with things greater than myself, and soon enough the work is not lonely at all, but blessed and beloved.”
Featuring the words of sixteen writers, For the Love of a Word is designed to encourage, inspire, and uplift you in your journey.
Featuring the words and hearts of:
Savannah Jezowski
Annie Harley
Kathy Twitchell
C.F. Barrows
Abigail M. Swanson

My Dive In Review:
For the love of a word is a book of poetry and love letters, all about the written word and our passion for reading and writing it.
It is a short read and can easily be finished in a single setting. Though I personally think that prose this powerful should be savored. I plan on reading it again much slower.
Struggling writers will find encouragement and support. Seriously if you are a writer suffering from doubt or fear, get a copy of this and read one letter a day, or all at once.
I believe this book can be enjoyed by readers as well. They’ll find their own feelings echoed in the poetry about words and the love letters to the writers that fuel their passion.
*I was given a free copy of this book for review purposes. All opinions are my own and were reached honestly.*
