Drawing on the experiences of many authors encountered during ten years of running a literary nonprofit that helps writers stay on creative track after starting a family, Milda M. DeVoe, founder of Pen Parentis, puts her Columbia MFA to good use in creating this fun, readable, helpful and inspiring reference book for parents, caregivers and others who feel too overwhelmed to write.

• help you learn how to make time out of no time
• provide guidance for nurturing a writing career along with children
• inspire you with true-life stories drawn from an archive of interviews with
• serious, professional and even bestselling writers - all who have kids
• introduce you to a plethora of resources to keep you writing
