ANNE LAMOTT - GEBRAUCHT BIRD BY BIRD SOME INSTR...

For a quarter century  more than a million readers-scribes and scribblers of all ages and
abilities-have been inspired by Anne Lamott's hilarious  big-hearted  homespun advice. Advice
that begins with the simple words of wisdom passed down from Anne's father-also a writer-in the
iconic passage that gives the book its title:    "Thirty years ago my older brother  who was
ten years old at the time  was trying to get a report on birds written that he'd had three
months to write. It was due the next day. We were out at our family cabin in Bolinas  and he
was at the kitchen table close to tears  surrounded by binder paper and pencils and unopened
books on birds  immobilized by the hugeness of the task ahead. Then my father sat down beside
him  put his arm around my brother's shoulder  and said  'Bird by bird  buddy. Just take it
bird by bird.'"   An essential volume for generations of writers young and old  Bird by Bird is
a modern classic. This twenty-fifth anniversary edition will continue to spark creative minds
for years to come.
