Creating Confident, Competent, Creative Work

We are all apprentices in a craft where no one ever becomes a master. – Ernest Hemingway

Growing up every meal began with quiet hands, the kind of folded hands with a purpose and simple elegance. Maybe that’s what Paula Munier was talking about when she wrote her book, Writing with Quiet Hands. When you know what you’re after, what’s important in life, things fall into place. Munier describes how when a writer approaches her art with quiet confidence, with know-how, what she writes makes a difference. She says writers need to focus on craft, inspiration, play and practice, and they “will create confident, competent, creative work.”
