Jump Start: How to Write from Everyday Life

The author Robert Wolf held writing workshops for homeless and then rural people in the U.S. These Free River Press workshops provided interesting samples used in this 150 page writing instruction book. I'm sure that now after his skin has hardened from getting neophytes to write so well, Mr. Wolf could perhaps repeat his great success at the college level.This book presents methods for writing creative non-fiction, particularly memoir. It targets group writing but I particularly liked it for my individual practice for writing essays. The exercises were new, and look useful and fun to try.I found lots of useful information in this book.John DunbarSugar Land, TX
