Wisconsin Author Ignites Writer's Creativity with "Writing Wide" and Donates a Share of Profits to Local Library

"Writing Wide means your reader gets the whole picture, whether it's getting inside your character and fleshing them out, or plunging your reader into the character's world. By using everyday items and inspirational exercises, writers will learn to write instinctively from their heart rather than a formula.

"Writing Wide is about using the spaces between the lines, the white space, the very edges of your creative mind to bring your writing to life."

So much of witing today is formulaic...from the junk mail that flows into your mail box, to many of the most popular novels...even nonfiction books follow formulas to make them sell as many copies as possible.

But writing that dares break through formulas, writing that endures in the memory of its readers, this is truly successful writing.

And it's this kind of writing that Billie A Williams of Amberg, Wiscosnin, explores in her newest nonfiction title, "Writing Wide; Excercises in Creative WRiting."

Williams asserts that anyone can write, but not everyone can write an engaging and suspenseful manuscript. She manages to do both in her novels, "Death by Candlelight," and "Tung Umolomo." She's also the author of numerous articles, short stories and book reviews. Her bublishing credits include Story Lady, Thema Magazine, Guide Magazine for Children, BlueBerry Press Publicaitons, Patricia Lewin's web site, Word Mage, Inscriptoins, Filbert Publishing and Sell Writing On Line, to name a few.
