Book Club: The Artist’s Way – Weeks 8 and 9

We are about 2/3 of the way through The Artist's Way journey!  Hooray!  Julia Cameron's book provides a roadmap for unlocking and exploring creative potential. Through 12 weeks of practices, the book challenges writers, musicians, designers, and other creatives to quiet their inner critic, take risks, and ultimately practice living a more creative life.

Week 8: Recovering a Sense of Strength

In Week 8, we’re talking about recovering a sense of strength and building resilience in the face of failure and loss. We’ll talk about the importance of taking small, but consistent action towards our creative goals.

Week 9: Recovering a Sense of Compassion

In week 9, I find myself happy with the book at last.  (It's a testament to sticking with something even if it's not your cup of tea at first glance.)  This week, seems to me, to finally be about joy.  And…I finally "get" morning pages.

Thanks for stopping by!
