The Getaway Car: A Practical Memoir About Writing and Life by Ann Patchett

Whenever a writer writes about writing, I think about audience. A few passages really resonated with me -- especially when she recounts her experiences with writing teachers at Sarah Lawrence, surprise surprise. But I see The Getaway Car more as something I'd like to sneak into the hands of a couple of people I know who love Patchett's books, and who I also suspect would make excellent creative writers. The calls to action are juuuuust right.
