What inspires writers? What frustrates them? Why is good writing so hard? Why—and how--do writers write well? In On Writing: A Process Reader, composition theorist and poet Wendy Bishop presents a collection of readings that remind us not only why writing matters, but how it gets done. Organized around different aspects of the writing process, the selections – by well-known published authors, as well as by students and their instructors—illuminate the art and the craft of writing.
