The Belated Writer

After finishing an MA in Creative Writing at the end of 2011, Susan Jordan started a blog about becoming a writer later in life. She soon found herself posting pieces about other aspects of herself and the world, but writing about writing is the central theme. This book is a collection of pieces from the blog, on various subjects from poetry to public transport and Buddhism to Brexit. It's both funny and serious, wry and reflective, and it includes contributions from the inimitable Adelina A. Vark. If you have ever tried to publish a novel or wondered whether you are a poet, you will recognise much here. This is a belated writer's companion, a book for dipping into and finding pieces that speak to you.
