Каждый эпизод — это дневник начинающего автора: что получилось, что не получилось, как искать идею, как начать писать книгу, как не бросить на середине и что делать, когда кажется, что «я не писатель».

Мы разбираем темы, которые чаще всего ищут будущие авторы: 
• как начать писать книгу с нуля; 
• с чего начинается писательская карьера; 
• как придумать идею и выстроить план; 
• как писать каждый день и не выгорать; 
• как улучшать текст без опыта;

''Tell It All'': The Story of a Life's Experience in Mormonism by Fanny Stenhouse.   Fanny relates the experiences of a 19th century missionary as she and her young husband proselytize throughout Europe in search of converts to the new Mormon faith. Her religious zeal is sorely tested upon receipt of news from America revealing that their religion has adopted the practice of polygamy as the means to exaltation. The couple is summoned to Utah only to find themselves firmly ensconced in Brigham Young's inner circle and called upon to practice plural marriage or risk a fall from family, friends, and faith.

Dive into the enchanting world of the Fables of Pilpay, a collection of timeless moral tales that trace their origins back to the ancient Sanskrit text, Panchatantra (200 BC – 300 AD). These captivating stories were first translated into Arabic by the Persian scholar Ruzbeh, who titled it the Book of Kalilah and Dimna. Subsequent translations by Abdullah Ibn al-Muqaffa and Joseph Harris in 1679, followed by a reimagining in 1818, have kept these fables alive through the centuries. Notably, Max Mueller highlighted La Fontaines indebtedness to this work, while other scholars recognize the influence of the fables on Jeanne-Marie LePrince de Beaumont and John Fletcher. Each fable intricately weaves together lessons on human virtues and vices, often through the lens of anthropomorphized animals, making them both entertaining and thought-provoking. (Summary by The introduction and Wikipedia)

Fables of Pilpay

In the late eighteenth century, English writers began to explore the stunning landscapes of the Lake District, inspired not only by the works of painters like Claude Lorrain and Nicolas Poussin but by the allure of nature itself. This remote region evolved from a secluded farming area into a celebrated romantic landscape, immortalized in Thomas West’s A Guide to the Lakes (1778). Unlike his predecessors, who merely traveled through the Lakes, West, a resident, invites readers on an immersive journey through the districts breathtaking scenery, with the notable exception of Wastwater. A passionate admirer of the Claude glass—a tinted mirror that captures the landscape as if painted—West enhances Gray’s technique of identifying the most picturesque viewpoints. His guide is a delightful blend of travel narrative and rich historical descriptions of nearby towns like Lancaster, Penrith, and Kendal, making it a captivating read for both nature lovers and history enthusiasts. - Summary by Phil Benson

Guide to the Lakes

Catherine Booth (1829 – 1890) was the wife of William Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army in England. She was a full-partner with her husband in the ministry and work of the movement which from the beginning welcomed women into full ministry and offices of the church. Her influence set the tone for much of the Army's ground-breaking work. Mildred Duff presents here a short but thorough account of Catherine's life and ministry. - Summary by Larry Wilson

Catherine Booth

At the age of 19 in 1902, MacLane published her first book, The Story of Mary MacLane. It sold 100,000 copies in the first month and was popular among young girls, but was strongly criticized by conservative readers, and lightly ridiculed by H.L. Mencken. She had always chafed at living in Butte, which was a small mining town, and used the money from sales of this book to move to Greenwich Village where she continued to write books and newspaper articles. Some critics have suggested that even by today's standards, MacLane's writing is raw, honest, unflinching, self-aware, sensual and extreme. She wrote openly about egoism and her own self-love, about sexual attraction and love for other women, and even about her desire to marry the devil. (Summary from Wikipedia)

Story of Mary MacLane

Cardinal Thomas Wolsey (1473-1530) will always be remembered as the Lord Chancellor who fell from power when he failed to obtain the annulment of King Henry VIII's marriage to Catherine of Aragon. The eminent British historian, Mandell Creighton, writes that Wolsey was branded by Tudor historians as "the minion of the Pope, and the upholder of a foreign despotism." But the publication in the nineteenth century of the mass of documents relating to the reign of Henry VIII made possible a truer assessment of the visionary schemes of the great cardinal and of his underlying patriotism. In his patient diplomacy and careful construction of alliances, the author concludes that "at a great crisis of European history he impressed England with a sense of her own importance and secured for her a leading position in European affairs." - Summary by Pamela Nagami
