"Dreamer. Wannabe. Overnight success. Catastrophic failure. Writer.

Glimpse the gritty, behind-the-scenes struggles of author Todd Fahnestock as he reveals his dreams, trials, and adventures through the creative swamps of writing and the hard-edged world of publishing.

Fahnestock dodges junior high bullies armed with needles taped to Bic pens, cracks into traditional publishing by hitchhiking to the middle of nowhere to meet writing legend Gary Paulsen, and nearly falls to his death hanging cables inside an oil tanker. All to follow the author's dream.

Submerged in the treacherous, ever-changing ocean of art and business, Fahnestock paints an unforgettable portrait with honesty and touching vulnerability.

""Reminiscent of Steven Pressfield's The War of Art, Falling to Fly approaches the artist's challenge not from a how-to perspective but from an emotional and psychological one.""

-Jerry Fabyanic, Award-Winning Author of the Sisyphus Series

""This book is the Kitchen Confidential of the publishing industry.""

-Seth Brown, CEO of Lullabot"
