And introduces the Writing Metaphor, a tool that illuminates what you already know about overcoming writing challenges. Becoming shows you how to consult, trust, and follow that process. So you can live a pleasurable, productive, satisfying writing life.
Rarely do we think of the need for prayer in a school setting, but prayer can be a source of sustenance and comfort as we meet daily challenges in our lives. In A Prayer Book for Students and Teachers, Dr. Karissa Lee-Hutchins has penned a series of prayers over most situations that arise in a school setting. These meditations are insightful and imbued with humility for anyone who is striving for success or advancement or is in need of comfort in times of challenge or transition.
