Produktbeschreibung
The Writer's Crucible provides a map for navigating the turbulent, emotional waters of a creative life. It does so by helping writers understand the psychology of vulnerability. Perhaps the most common vulnerability we face is the persistent sense of not being good enough. This troubling insecurity is often present in even the most successful writer, who, despite success, is subject to episodes of self-doubt that undermine creativity. To help authors manage this core experience, The Writer's Crucible offers an in-depth exploration of the psychological underpinnings governing the internal narrative, "I am not enough." That knowledge enables readers to begin undoing emotional constrictions and connect with an inner source of spiritual nourishment, allowing creative energies to move with greater freedom. The Writer's Crucible is not a book that tells you how to write-it is one that shows you how to be a writer.
Autorenporträt
Philip Kenney writes and practices psychotherapy in Portland, Oregon. His most recent book, The Writer's Crucible: Meditations on Emotion, Being and Creativity, was a finalist for The Red City Review 2018 Non-Fiction Book of the Year. This work is intended to support writers with the emotional vulnerabilities they face living a creative life. In 2018, his essay, The Rebirth of Masculinity: What We Can Learn from Harvey Weinstein and Co. was published in issue #7 of The Timberline Review. He is also the author of the novel, Radiance, and a collection of poetry, Where Roses Grow. In the Spring of 2019, Mr. Kenney began writing haiku to help lubricate his mind from the stress of the Pandemic. By June he had written over a hundred and fifty and began putting together this chapbook.
