Writing Down the Bones

Natalie Goldberg's Zen teacher once asked her, "Why do you come to sit meditation? Why don't you make writing your practice? If you go deep enough in writing, it will take you everyplace." Writing Down the Bones will help you become a better writer, but more than that it will help you make writing a spiritual practice.
