In her latest "Novel Concepts" column post, book inc writer Lauren DeFelice discovers that embracing mundane tasks unexpectedly unlocks her creativity.

Read "How Menial Tasks Inspired My Writing" at https://bookinc.org/how-menial-tasks-inspired-my-writing.

Memoir Incubator PAL Michele Cantos is currently reading "How to Order the Universe" by María José Ferrada.

Michele says: "I began this quick read on the plane. I highly recommend the novel as inspo on alternative structures. She writes short vignettes that pack a punch, and it feels sort of like 'Dream House,' which I also recommended some time ago."

Thanks for the recommendation, Michele!

book inc Peer Artist Leader is currently reading "The Storied LIfe of A.J. Fikry" by

Unlike "Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow," which is so sprawling and complex, "The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry" is a simpler and quieter story. I will use it as a mentor text for craft analysis…and I also feel heartened that Zevin has created these wildly different books because it makes me feel better about my own project."
