The Fuse Box - Essays on Writing from Victoria University's International Institute of Modern Letters

The Fuse Box gathers essays from the writing community to shine fresh light on the creative process. Editors Emily Perkins and Chris Price have invited some of our best writers to share their strategies for staying plugged in and switched on. From the instigating spark through to currents and connections, they explore issues relevant to all stages of the writing life: how to get started and what to write about, how to keep the flow going over time, freedom and constraint, how your writing might meet the world, and how to make the most of accidents. Poets, dramatists, novelists and writing teachers open up to reveal their wiring in essays that are strikingly honest, political and playful.
