An anthology of essays by Black writers on the craft and practice of writing, edited by Jericho Brown. Contributors range from established novelists and poets to teachers, and the pieces mix personal reflection with practical advice on voice, revision, and sustaining a writing life. It suits readers who want craft guidance grounded in lived experience rather than formula, and it sits alongside classics like Bird by Bird and On Writing while speaking more directly to writers of color. The format is a collection, so some essays land harder than others, but the range of voices is the point.

Reviewers tend to value the book as a chorus of working writers rather than a single how-to method. They praise the honesty about race, rejection, and persistence, and note that the strongest essays are the most concrete. Some find the mix uneven and wish for more direct technique.
