Are you prepared to overcome your addiction to porn with a dash of traditional wisdom? "The Stoic's Guide to Quit Porn Addiction: Techniques Based on Stoicism on How to Quit the Habit of Masturbating & Other Forms of Sexual & Love Addictions" is a unique work written by Jack Hart. This book isn't like other self-help titles. Jack upends the status quo by introducing the Stoic philosophy—which originated in ancient Greece and Rome—into the midst of the contemporary addiction crisis.

Hart covers what writers in this genre need to know, from understanding story theory and structure, to mastering point of view and such basic elements as scene, action, and character, to drafting, revising, and editing work for publication. Revealing the stories behind the stories, Hart brings listeners into the process of developing nonfiction narratives by sharing tips, anecdotes, and recommendations he forged during his decades-long career in journalism.

Originally published in 2006 as A Writer’s Coach, the book has been updated to address the needs of writers well beyond print journalists.
