On Writing and Failure

In *On Writing and Failure*, Stephen Marche delves into the inherent struggles of writing, emphasizing that failure is an integral part of the process.

He shares personal experiences and historical examples of writerly failures, from Ovid to James Baldwin, to illustrate the necessity of enduring through rejection and disappointment.

The book serves as a guide for writers to cope with and learn from failure, rather than a traditional writing guide.
