Runaways: A Writer's Dilemma

In RUNAWAYS: A WRITER'S DILEMMA, author Michael J. Seidlinger centers a magnifying glass on the creative journey, with an honest and unabashed search into how and why someone would want to be accepted as a writer in a world that might not care. The book's breezy narrative contrasts with the despair that is often triggered by the wasteland of social media and the Internet. This is a story that reminds the reader that they aren't alone in a culture that pressures us to measure our work on a purely capitalistic level, driven by likes, hearts, and money. Like a darker and more skewed literary version of the metaphysical classic, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Seidlinger's RUNAWAYS: A WRITER'S DILEMMA shows us how our art, often made in solitary, can be the more important and inspiring part of living.
