As a teacher of writing and a highly respected author of prose and poetry for both adults and children, Nancy Willard knows well the power of writing. In thirteen graceful essays she speaks of the realities of a writer's life and of the ever-present need to turn the reader into a believer. She speaks of the abiding spirits---the "angels"---that preside over the world around us and with which writers must reckon as they form their ideas about objects, actions, and human beings. Readers of these essays will be challenged to a new awareness---and inspired to use that awareness to create.
