Zen and the Art of Writing AND The Joy of Writing TWO ESSAYS (NUMBER THIRTEEN: YES! CAPRA CHAPBOOK SERIES). By Ray Bradbury, Capra Press, Santa Barbara, California, 1973.
 
In this book, Ray Bradbury shares the wisdom, experience, and excitement of a lifetime of writing. Here are  practical tips on the art of writing from a master of the craft-everything from finding original ideas to developing your own voice and style-as well as the inside story of Bradbury's own remarkable career as a prolific author of novels, stories, poems, films, and plays. Zen In The Art of Writing is more than just a how-to manual for the  would-be writer: it is a celebration of the act of writing itself that will delight, impassion, and  inspire the writer in you.
