Maggie Smith, DEAR WRITER: Pep Talks & Practical Advice for the Creative Life

New York Times bestselling author and poet Maggie Smith returns to the podcast to discuss DEAR WRITER: Pep Talks & Practical Advice for the Creative Life. Maggie shares the long journey of writing this book (she drew from twenty years of teaching experience and her popular Substack newsletter!), her love of craft books, and her desire to demystify the creative process for writers and readers alike. She also talks about how delicate ideas are, the importance of staying open and receptive to creativity, the power of silencing your inner critic, and, ultimately, how we are all, at our core, poets.
