I recently finished reading (& thoroughly enjoying) The Literary Ladies' Guide to the Writing Life by Nava Atlas.  Beautifully designed, with glossy pages are packed with illustrations, vintage photos, quotes, insights and advice from twelve celebrated women writers like Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Madeleine L'Engle, Anais Nin, George Sand, Edith Wharton, and Virginia Woolf.

It's not a book you need to read from cover to cover. It's the type of book you can dip into anywhere and read a few pages at a time.

This would a fantastic gift for a writer friend.

I'm donating my review copy (which I kept in pristine condition!) to Carmella's book prize draw. To enter, just post a comment at the end of Carmella's "Growth Spurt" post. Not only will you be entered in the draw, but Carmella will donate $1 to the MAGIC Foundation. But hurry! This offer & draw ends tomorrow (Oct 7th).
