Word by Word

If you're a writer, you need this audiobook. The sound of Lamott's voice will cheer you on in your darkest hours. WORD BY WORD is a live recording of one of Lamott's writing workshops. Lamott's voice drones a bit, but her humor, sincerity and wisdom make up for it. In this workshop, where she engages with real listeners and even conducts a short question-and-answer session, her vocal quality doesn't matter a whit because she's the real thing--a successful writer--and she shares invaluable nuggets of wisdom about writing and the writing life.
