“Join Heller on her quest to help save the world, one poet at a time.”
— from the foreword by Susan G. Wooldridge
Write a Poem, Save Your Life helps writers of all ages and experience levels navigate their way through all aspects of life. With writing prompts, tools, encouragement, and moving student examples, Meredith Heller gently guides us in the art of using poetry to figure out who we are and what matters to us and to heal the deeper issues many of us face, such as depression, addiction, health and body image issues, low self-esteem, trauma, gender and sexual identity issues, and home and family problems. Along the way, we learn that writing poems helps us believe in ourselves, make positive life choices, and find direction, purpose, and meaning.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Meredith Heller is now a performing poet and singer-songwriter with graduate degrees in writing and education. But she was once a young teen facing devastating life circumstances who happened upon poetry and found in it a way through pain, into inner strength, and toward self-expression and self-love. She has devoted her life to helping others find the same and here shares ways that anyone -- at any age, and with any level of education or writing experience -- can learn to use and play with words. Her methods show that one's unique, personal perspectives -- on everything from childhood, disappointments, and fears to food, nature, and wildlife -- can be keys to self-discovery. Writing becomes a personal refuge and a means of communication. Whether used on their own, with a partner, or in groups, Heller's strategies allow everyone to acknowledge and move through what hurts and limits them, discover their innate sense of wonder and curiosity, and revel in creativity, confidence, and purpose.
