Dear Writer

Dear Writer provides tools for artists of all experience levels by breaking down creativity into ten essential elements: attention, wonder, vision, play, surprise, vulnerability, restlessness, tenacity, connection, and hope.

Each element is explored through inspiring essays and generative writing prompts, making it accessible to various genres and areas of life.

The book is inspired by Maggie Smith's twenty years of teaching experience and her bestselling Substack newsletter, For Dear Life.
