A revised and updated guide to the essentials of a writer's craft, presented by a brilliant practitioner of the art

Completely revised and rewritten to address the challenges and opportunities of the modern era, this handbook is a short, deceptively simple guide to the craft of writing. Le Guin lays out ten chapters that address the most fundamental components of narrative, from the sound of language to sentence construction to point of view. Each chapter combines illustrative examples from the global canon with Le Guin's own witty commentary and an exercise that the writer can do solo or in a group. She also offers a comprehensive guide to working in writing groups, both actual and online.

Masterly and concise, Steering the Craft deserves a place on every writer's shelf.

Saved my skin during the winter
Such a great multi-purpose product!! I’ll use under my eyes if my skin is dry, or if I’m using an active that I know will dry my skin. I also would slather it on during the winter if I was walking or running outside and I knew it would be windy. It really helped against windburn.

Lightweight SPF that layers well under makeup
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen feels much lighter than many high-SPF formulas I’ve tried and blends into the skin without leaving a heavy white cast. The texture spreads easily and gives a hydrated finish without feeling greasy, which makes it comfortable for everyday wear on both the face and body. I also liked that it layered well under makeup without pilling. I used this during long outdoor days and it held up well while still feeling comfortable on the skin. The SPF 60 protection is reassuring, especially for travel, beach days, festivals, or daily sun exposure. Overall, this is a reliable sunscreen option if you want strong protection with a more wearable, skincare-like texture.

A Must-Have for Sensitive Skin
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
recently tried La Roche-Posay sunscreen and I’m really impressed! 🌞 The texture is lightweight, non-greasy, and absorbs quickly without leaving a white cast, which is a big plus for daily wear. It feels gentle on my skin and doesn’t clog pores, making it perfect for sensitive or acne-prone skin. I also love that it provides strong, broad-spectrum protection while still feeling breathable. Overall, it’s become my go-to sunscreen—I actually enjoy applying it every morning because it feels more like skincare than sunscreen. Definitely worth it! I would be honored if you would consider me to receive a PR package. I’d love the opportunity to try more of your products and create authentic content that highlights the benefits of La Roche-Posay skincare. Thank you so much for your time and consideration! Warm regards, Andrea Mohanlall
