What you write can change someone's life. In this engaging collection of short essays for writers, Keiko O’Leary explores what it means to live life as a writer, offers encouragement and inspiration, and suggests practical techniques to cultivate your writing life. Drawing on her experience as a writer, writing group leader, and workshop instructor, Keiko writes about topics such as: MOTIVATION: “You deserve to create what’s in you to create.” CREATIVITY: “Your personal geography is a wellspring of memoir and poetry, and a source of authentic detail for fiction.” LEGACY: “Through your writing, you help people experience meaning, not only in what you write, but also in their own lives.” Whether you have years of experience or are just starting out, these essays will support you on your writing journey. EDITORIAL REVIEWS "This is a book of welcome—which means that it's a book of openings, the kind of openings that every writer needs to be inspired and connected-to the world, to themselves, to their fellow writers, to their stories ... and to all of the mysteries that touch us as creators. "'You deserve to create what's in you to create, ' writes Keiko O'Leary. Yes. This book radiates yes. It radiates awakening." — Grant Faulkner, Executive Director of National Novel Writing Month "A beautifully written meditation on the writer's life. The minute I started reading this, I thought, 'Oh, I'm home!' This book speaks to the writer in me, not the published person in me. I can't speak highly enough about this book." — Julie A. Fast, Bestselling Author of Getting It Done When You're Depressed "Keiko's book inspired me to start working on a novel that I had been wanting to write." — Erin Garcia, author, educator "If you want to write but feel intimidated, or you start writing but get discouraged, or even if you already write a lot but would like some encouragement and celebration—this book is for you." — C. Borst, author of Soldiers in Grey "Keiko doesn't just love reading and writing. She is in love withreading and writing, and in love with readers and writers. Page after page, we come to realize we're not odd or alone. She believes in you and me unconditionally. "Writers like us are connected through what we read and write and create. Writing and creating are, in fact, our life-sustaining provisions. 'Claim your peers.' It will free you up to write, to heal, to memorialize, and to speak out." — Lorraine Haataia, Ph.D., founder of Prolific Writers Life "This book stirred me deeply. [It's] a book that welcomed me, non-judgmentally, back home to writing. Your Writing Matters is unconditional love. And wisdom. Keiko O'Leary's voice is an unpretentious beckoning to never give up-not on our writing, not on ourselves." — Ruth Littmann-Ashkenazi, author "Insightful and interesting." — Katy Morgan, author of the Compound Series

This book brings together the work of scholars from around the world UK, Pakistan, US, South Africa, Hungary, Korea, Mexico to illustrate and celebrate the many ways in which Roz Ivanic has advanced the academic study of writing. Focusing on writing in different formal contexts of education, from primary through to further and higher education in a range of national contexts, the twenty one original contributions in the book critically engage with theoretical and empirical issues raised in Ivanic's influential body of work. In their exploration of writers' struggles with the demands of dominant literacy the authors significantly extend understandings of writing practices in formal institutions. Organized around three themes central to Ivanic's work creativity and identity; pedagogy; and research methodologies the twelve chapters and nine personal and scholarly reflections reveal the powerful ways in which Ivanic's work has influenced thinking in the field of writing and continues to open up avenues for future questioning and research.
