About this book
A guidebook for creatives Featuring contributions from a diverse group of over 30 nationally-celebrated authors and Western NC powerhouse creatives, Spinning Toward the Sun offers insights on persevering in the creative journey, along with specifics about craft. 100% of proceeds to Hurricane Helene recovery With all of its proceeds donated to Beloved Asheville and World Central Kitchen, Spinning also serves as a heartfelt act of solidarity, of how we can all play a role in helping heal our communities — and each other — when we need it most. IPPY (Independent Book Publishers) Award, “Writing/Publishing” ---- "SPINNING TOWARD THE SUN is exactly the anthology I was looking for when planning book adoptions for the composition class I was teaching. I was hoping to find an anthology with well-written essays that would empower students in their own writing, and this book more than delivers! These excellently crafted essays, written by diverse authors on a range of topics related to the craft of writing, have not only resonated strongly with students but have also helped build community in the classroom!" - Diana Ma, Faculty in English and Humanities, North Seattle College
