Why do we write? What does it mean to be a writer? This book contains no useful tips on grammar, style, or plot. Instead, it focuses on the observation and perspective that is needed to be a good writer - on the fact that writing is an expression of the art of living. A lovely journey through a very Edwardian world.

Cómo Vivir con Veinticuatro Horas al Día
Cómo vivir con veinticuatro horas al día es un libro escrito por Arnold Bennett en 1908. Fue un novelista británico. Fue un escritor prolífico: entre el comienzo de su carrera en 1898 y su muerte completó 34 novelas, siete volúmenes de historias breves, 13 obras de teatro (algunas en colaboración con otros autores) y un diario que totaliza más de un millón de palabras. 'A usted, mi querido señor, le presento mis excusas y mis disculpas. Usted es precisamente el hombre que deseaba conocer desde hace unos cuarenta años. ¿Tendrá usted la bondad de enviarme su nombre y dirección, y de indicarme su cargo para decirme cómo lo hace? En lugar de que yo hable con usted, usted debería hablar conmigo. Por favor, preséntese. Que usted existe, estoy convencido, y que aún no lo he encontrado es mi pérdida. Mientras tanto, hasta que usted aparezca, seguiré charlando con mis compañeros de infortunio: ese innumerable grupo de almas que son perseguidas, más o menos dolorosamente, por la sensación de que los años pasan, y pasan, y pasan, y que todavía no han podido poner sus vidas en orden'. Narrado en Español Latino Neutro.

Audiobook
Are you really 'living', or just existing? Do you want to improve yourself or just continue to muddle through? Do you use the time given you each day, or just throw most of it away? These questions Bennett asks each of us and for those who want to really live and learn, offers very valuable advice. Time is the most precious of commodities, states Bennett in this book. Many books have been written on how to live on a certain amount of money each day. And he added that the old adage 'time is money' understates the matter, as time can often produce money, but money cannot produce more time. Time is extremely limited, and Bennett urged others to make the best of the time remaining in their lives. Which of us lives on twenty-four hours a day? And when I say 'lives,' I do not mean exists, nor 'muddles through.' Which of us is free from that uneasy feeling that the 'great spending departments' of his daily life are not managed as they ought to be? [...] Which of us is not saying to himself -- which of us has not been saying to himself all his life: 'I shall alter that when I have a little more time'? We never shall have any more time. We have, and we have always had, all the time there is.
Arnold Bennett (Author), Phil Chenevert (Narrator)

Perfect Your Writing: How to be a stylish, insightful and convincing writer.
Are you keen to perfect your writing? This audiobook will teach you how to be a stylish, insightful and convincing writer. This compilation includes Twain's On the Decay of the Art of Lying, Strunk's The Elements of Style, and Bennett's The Author's Craft - all in one. The Elements of Style by William Strunk Jr first clarifies the writer's understanding of how to - correctly. In it, Strunk has laid a detailed, essential map, one he believed pays off, for in unlocking the secrets of style, one opens the terrain for mastery of literature.Now over a century since its first publication, the book is anything but outdated, as it is still widely used today – just testament to Strunk’s timeless knowledge and mastery with the pen.'The skilled observer ... does not have to change his mind.' – Arnold Bennett.The Author's Craft is Arnold Bennett’s four-part writing tutorial. As an esteemed journalist, novelist and playwright, he believed truly 'Seeing Life' primed the pen, out of which 'Writing Novels', 'Writing Plays' and 'The Artist and The Public' emerge. In the exposition, he expands on how to see the world, and how to not overlook the details most miss… These skills and techniques give rise to the craft he feels the author is really trying to achieve: art.Mark Twain’s “On the Decay of the Art of Lying” was his wryly told essay on why he felt the world needs educated lying, published in 1880 for a meeting of the Historical and Antiquarian Club of Hartford, Connecticut. The way he saw it, everyone lies at some point in their lives. Twain decided that lying could be a valuable skillset in various different arenas - provided you knew how to do it well, and didn’t try to hurt anybody. As he put it, 'What chance has the ignorant uncultivated liar against the educated expert? What chance have I against Mr. Per—against a lawyer? Judicious lying is what the world needs.'

How to live on 24 Hours a Day read by Russ Williams
Arnold Bennett's classic 'Time Management' book that most certainly still rings true today as we strive to control our busy lives. We tend to value money more rather than time, in the words of Bennett…'Newspapers are full of articles explaining how to live on such-and-such a sum…but I have never seen an essay 'how to live on 24 hours a day.' Yet it has been said that time is money. That proverb understates the case. Time is a great deal more than money. If you have time, you can obtain money-usually. But…you cannot buy yourself a minute more time'. You will learn how to make the time you need to acquire what you want out of life and what you want to achieve. There is no magic formula just an explanation of how most people use and waste their time and he shows you another way of using time to your best advantage. Bennett combines his reasoned and proven methods to explain with a fair degree of humour where people go wrong and how to avoid a typical day can be altered for the better even if you have a demanding full-time job. Time is precious. 'We shall never have more time. We have, and have always had, all the time there is.' says Bennett. Working on the 'mind' is key to Bennett. The first thing to do he says, is not to consider your life is your workday. He offers a solution to reading a newspaper or scrolling social media pages on the morning commute and explains the changes you can make and how to do them to make the most of your time. Evenings are a bug bear of Bennett's too. They are rife for aimless time wasting and this is an area of your being and consciousness that needs to be and can be easily addressed. Arnold Bennett embraces every minute of his day and uses his time to great effect and success. He certainly doesn't have any anxiety or stress to contend with. 'How To Live On 24 Hours A Day' will make you smile, make you embarrassed and give you a completely new understanding of TIME and how best to use it for your benefit and that of your work life and family life. It is one of the classic time management books. 'You say your day is already full to overflowing. How? You actually spend in earning your livelihood – how much? Seven hours on the average. And in sleep, seven? I will add another two to be generous. And I will defy you to account for me the other 8 hours on the spur of the moment'. A. Bennett – author and time management specialist.

Self and Self-Management: Essays about Existing is one of Bennett's most successful works, comprising a series of essays that address the struggles concerning work that mainly young women have faced during his time, at an individual level. The essays start at a basis that seems to suggest all individuals have a certain ability to use their energy wisely while working, and to either tap into their own resources, or use tactics of avoidance that can be extremely elaborate at a psychological level. According to Bennett, 'some individuals appear to lack energy, when, in fact, they are full of energy which is merely dormant.' The essays themselves tackle issues that we are faced with on a daily basis even today. The lack of useful energy, inspiration and motivation that even the most brilliant people in the world seem to cope with at times often leads to debilitating consequences, many of which can be avoided - according to Bennett - with a proper understanding of the process. The author takes us through a deep psychological and philosophical journey into the human psyche, that seems to lead to practical applications and results, however, only for those willing to put the ideas of books such as this one to the task.
