"I'm always telling anyone who wants to write: Do Freefall!" Helena McEwen, author of The Big House and Invisible River (Bloomsbury) "Useful for beginners, superb for writers in the middle of their training and an absolute lifesaver for pros who have lost their nerve." Mimi Thebo, Senior Lecturer in Creative Writing, Bath Spa University "Here is a book that charts new territory, inviting the writer to fall with confidence into the ether of the creative self in order to write with skill and authenticity." Louise Green, Editor, Lapidus Journal
