About
This inspirational guide for aspiring and experienced writers was originally published in 1997. Written in a friendly, hopeful, and gently humorous tone, it focuses on the creative process and emotional ups and downs of the creative life, providing insights into how to persist in the face of rejection, frustration, feelings of inadequacy, lack of support from loved ones, and more. It also offers practical how-to advice, from organizing your time so you actually sit down and write to reading as a writer. This ebook's rerelease of The Writer's Survival Guide includes a new introduction that discusses the origins of the book and how, in spite of the many changes in publishing and technology, it remains relevant today.

"In many ways a book of philosophy, it could just as easily be used as a motivational guide for almost any endeavor."
The Philadelphia Inquirer
"With humor and compassion, Rachel Simon tackles the hard times and the good times and the sticky stuck moments that confront writers at every level in their career.
