Where do an author’s ideas come from?
What drives them to write?
And how do these ideas become a book?

In Writing Life, award-winning author Steinunn Sigurdardottir, known for her novels, poetry, and non-fiction, offers an intimate glimpse into her creative process. Like Stephen King’s On Writing and Anne Lamott’s Bird by Bird, Sigurdardottir shares her methods, perspectives, and the conditions under which she writes. With wit and insight, she explores her writing journey, from her battles with form and style to drawing inspiration from her surroundings and experiences.

Writing Life is a captivating exploration of what it means to be a writer, filled with Sigurdardottir’s humor, wisdom, and unique style, providing inspiration for writers at every stage.
