Metamorphosis Eli Winfield

A collection of 'do your job--write your words then let them go' poetry examining the struggles and inspiration of a creative life. Have you ever wondered if you were the only one struggling with your call to be an artist, if you were the only one feeling like you were dancing naked on a rooftop every time you share your art whether it is words on a page or other forms of art? In this brutally honest collection of poems about living the life of a writer, Eli Winfield shares her thoughts, fears, hopes and dreams about all the aspects of a creative life. There are poems here that will inspire you, poems that will remind you about why you are choosing to do this work, and poems about facing the muse, the critic, the early morning blank page, and yourself.
