How do you get closer to what you need to push through your writing with your voice, style, confessions in-tact? How do you out-wit the inner critic, the over-whelming project ahead of you, the worry and self-doubt? Try burning down assumptions of what it means to be a writer and start from scratch. If Baxter hasn't yet won you with his fiction, maybe he will get you with his prose. This book is liberating. Make sure to read the chapter called Rhyming Action; about the poet versus the fiction writer. It's biting and witty. It might sting a little.
