Schreibspiegel Jon Obermeyer

Schreibspiegel is North Carolina author Jon Obermeyer's made-up German word translating roughly as "Writing Mirror." In this sequel to his 2017 writing guide "Myriad," Jon explores a plethora of writing topics, often with a humorous touch: What if Big Pharma could cure Writer's Block with a Blockbuster drug like Viagra? What is it like to be a Klutz and should you write a poem about it? How do English majors, underpaid editors and book club hostesses say "Le Mot Juste" and get away with it? If you are a Writer (capital W), have dreams of being a writer or about to date one, Schriebspiegel is the ideal way to enter the shallow end of the literary pool.
