About this listen

Feeling stifled by "shoulds" and yearning to find your authentic voice? Uncork your creativity with Brenda Ueland's timeless classic, "If You Want to Write." Originally published in 1938, this inspiring guide is more than just craft tips; it's a passionate manifesto for artistic independence. Ueland, a mentor to writers like Anaïs Nin and Flannery O'Connor, believes everyone has a unique story to tell and urges you to silence self-doubt and embrace the inherent joy of writing. With warmth, humor, and practical wisdom, she encourages you to:

Ditch the rules: Forget rigid structures and find your own rhythm.

Mine your experiences: Everyday life is a treasure trove of inspiration.

Write for yourself first: Prioritize your genuine voice over external expectations.

Embrace imperfection: Don't let fear paralyze you; write freely and learn as you go.

Celebrate the journey: Find joy in the process, not just the outcome.

Whether you're a budding writer or a seasoned storyteller seeking a spark, "If You Want to Write" is your invitation to unleash your creative spirit and embark on a journey of self-discovery through the power of words.
