Silence your inner English teacher. Tie her up, gag her and lock her in the closet for a while. Just write. From Spark to Finish is for people who have had their inner writer beaten out of them with too many red pen strokes. Writing is a gift that all of us can partake of, and it doesn't have to be for high stakes and grades. The regular practice of writing sharpens your thinking and focuses your thoughts. It enables you to uncover what you really do think. Steve Swellander, a college writing teacher for over thirty years, takes a no nonsense, humorous and sometimes irreverent look at writing. Like our spoken language, writing is for all of us, not just self-professed elite language guardians. He takes you though the steps of finding your spark--your desire to communicate--and fleshing it all out in ways that honor your unique vision of what you want to say.
