In today’s Craft Book Spotlight, The Writer magazine gave our very own all-faculty compilation, Alchemy of the Word, a nice shout-out:
“When National Book Award winner and acclaimed memoirist Maxine Hong Kingston praises a book, you sit up and pay attention.
“Whether you’re a young beginner or a veteran writer like me, you’ll get support from reading Alchemy of the Word,” says Kingston.”These authors’ thoughts are mystical and practical, political and inspiring and funny. I’ve found companions on this lonely journey.”
“Alchemy of the Word is a compilation of keynote or commencement addresses delivered by faculty members in Goddard College’s creative writing MFA program. The anthology, originally published in 2011, is now in its second edition, with new essays from recent addresses added alongside the originals.
“Alchemy of the Word is no ordinary book about writing, reading, and the writing life,” promise editors Nicola Morris and Aimee Liu in the introduction. “Here you will travel to the wellsprings of literary passion.”
“Contributors include Paul Selig, Michael Klein, Deborah Brevoort, and Rahna Reiko Rizzuto.”
