Overview

Make Every Encounter with Writing More Meaningful Simply put, mindfulness is the practice of being present and living in the current moment, free from distraction and judgment. Pursuing writing with an eye toward mindfulness can make putting pen to paper or fingers to keyboard a much easier activity, as well as a more profound experience. In Write Here and Now: The Mindful Writing Teacher's Guide to Finding the Zen in Their Pen, Dan Tricarico offers strategies, approaches, and tools educators can use in the classroom to improve their writing instruction through the lens of mindfulness, but he also reveals how-and why-educators can improve their own writing practice. The book is designed to help writers generate ideas, compose in the heat of the moment, revise and polish, and prepare a proper final draft. But that's not all. This book will also help writers figure out what to do when they're uninspired, when the words won't come, or when they're slogging through a tough piece and feeling stuck.
