"This is a timely and original contribution to the field, a valuable and much needed textbook that advocates for inclusion and diversity of practice, and advocates for and allows space for other voices in the predominantly white creative writing space. It remedies the issue of the silencing of writers of colour and speaks to the direct needs of multicultural writers." (Paul Williams, Deputy Head of School (Research) and Senior Lecturer in Creative Writing, University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia) "The prompts in this textbook are carefully and richly imagined. Professor Kaldas has taken the notion of the writing exercise and infused it with a heightened sensitivity to the needs and challenges of the multicultural experience. These exercises are designed to ignite not only creativity, but also useful conversations around culture and identity." (Marcia Douglas, Professor in the Department of English, University of Colorado, USA) "This is an important and timely textbook for teachers and students of Creative Writing who would like to bring a strong multicultural approach and experience to all aspects of their workshop practice. It's full of excellent practical advice, writing exercises and references. A much needed addition to the field of Creative Writing teaching and pedagogy.
