Abstract

The introduction sets the tone of the book: inspirational and entrepreneurial. It advises how a person could become a creative writing therapist/coach and memory enhancement counselor. The idea is that the examples presented in the book can be self-directed (for personal growth) or business oriented: how to make money teaching individuals, running workshops and producing books for clients which use the techniques she will offer throughout the volume. Her writing style is engaged and assertive; the goal is to enable the reader to imagine their own work, on their own or as part of a larger therapeutic and medical team (including expressive arts therapists) in using creative writing as a tool and technique in a variety of settings. The introduction also focuses on techniques: such as combining creative writing while listening to 'upbeat' ethnic music. Different music can elicit different kinds of imaginative writing. The mix of how-to information, other resources (print and web-based) and opinion on how to best approach writing, engaging oneself or others in writing various kinds of material: eulogies, memoirs, oral history, chapbook making, etc. are geared to self-growth, healing, and the verities of the commercial marketplace, from magazine periodical sale to self-publishing, to writing therapy book production for clients as a kind of cottage industry.
