Let the Crazy Child Write!: Finding Your Creative Writing VoiceTwelve lively, in-depth chapters reveal how following our untrained impulses — our creative unconscious or "Crazy Child" — gives an authentic grasp on writing stories, poems, plays, and essays. Let the Crazy Child Write! introduces exercises that explicitly tap this knowledge and also presents guidelines on how to give, and receive, constructive feedback. This is the first how-to-write text to give full credit to the creative unconscious since Becoming a Writer, the 1934 classic by Dorothea Brande. Matson goes further by developing writing techniques step by step: Image Detail, Slow Motion, Hook, Persona Writing, Point of View, Dialogue, Plot, Narrative Presence, Good Clichés, Character, Surrealism, and Resolution. |

The Editor is the superego or the parent — the “should” voice. It analyzes and criticizes our writing, and is intelligent, well-read, and thinks it is civilized. Its judgments can be helpful, harsh, or anywhere in between.

Your Editor often has too many suggestions or too many hostile judgments. A workshop will provide you with constructive insights in a way that you'll be able to hear — even if your Editor and Writer are being contentious.

The kindergarten rules constrain the Editor from giving heavy criticism that can stop people from writing. The ground rules establish a “syngenetic” workshop that focuses on understanding the writer's primary impulse.
