The Alchemy is a robust, frank and loving guide to an often opaque industry. As well as offering tips on working in gentle increments and reimagining what productivity and the work of writing look like, there is advice on sending out work and navigating the industry, looking after your mental health as you go. Full of practical advice, strategies, comfort and the occasional entertaining essay, The Alchemy is about writing a book when you thought you could not. It is for all writers, but with a particular eye on those who are tired and lacking in confidence, and those who face significant challenges perhaps you are chronically ill or care for a loved one. It is a book for beginners, but it is also for those of you who are stuck in your habits and practice perhaps you just need a pal to guide you through the day to day with the book you wanted to write. Thats what The Alchemy is. Lets do this together.
