Version_2 This book is dedicated to my beloved mother, who suffered both from being overweight and from many dark depressions about it. These struggles impaired her ability to lead a creatively fulfilling life. I loved her dearly and miss her deeply. Author’s Note Please note: The names of people discussed and quoted in The Writing Diet have been changed to protect their privacy. In some cases composite characters have been used. All such alterations have been made for the purpose of simply condensing concepts I have often observed. It is my hope that this book will help you lead a healthier and more creative life.
