Millions of Americans want to write about their lives. With Old Friend as the road map for getting started and following through, writers and readers will gain a deeper understanding of their own minds, learn to connect with their senses in order to find the detail and truth that give their written words power and authenticity, and unfold the natural structure of the stories they carry within. An absolute joy to read, it is a profound affirmation of the capacity of the written word to remember the past, free us from it, and forever transform the way we think about ourselves and our lives. Like Writing Down the Bones, Goldberg's classic book about the practice of writing, it will become an old friend to which readers return again and again.

At dusk, I dance with the strange feeling of being momentarily withdrawn from my body, at evening I fall immensely inlove with people and things that are sometimes absurd or magical; but at night, I revisit those heaven-like experiences and colour them on paper.
she is so amazing. I just finished "writing down the bones". I have to go buy the rest of her writing books. i don't feel i can write without her "helping me" or me getting to read her encouraging words everyday.
Thank you Natalie. You've given me another way to look at loneliness. I never thought, before, of looking at writing as "my way" to connect to other people. I'm one of those people who happen to express myself better through writing to another than actual face to face. Prior to this video, I judged myself as, perhaps, being to seperated from the world. But now, I see. We have to find our own way to be connected. Your voice, Your video and Your writings speak to me.
