Have you heard of The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron? Perhaps you have, it is a seminal work that has been read and used by millions. Maybe you haven’t yet, I only heard of it a year or two ago and since then have thought many times that I should check it out.

Essentially it is a 12 week journey, helping you get unstuck creatively.

I imagine it is also useful simply to ignite and support your inner creativity in whatever form that takes…painting, writing, dancing, singing, connecting with your spouse, relating to your children, taking your work to a new inspired level, simply living with a fresher spark and energy for life.

I picked it up at the library today and plan to begin the journey– gently and modified (I am pregnant with two toddlers at home!) but with a commitment that I will give a bit of attention to it most days of the week.

I hope to post about the process as it unfolds for me weekly…sharing briefly what the current week’s goals were, and what has surfaced as a result.  Not knowing where this is going, we’ll have to see what the nature and usefulness of these posts are as they come! But I do hope they will inspire and stir interesting conversation.

Or might you go along with me? Here is the book as listed on Amazon (The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity [10th Anniversary Edition]
) But do check out other inexpensive, thrifted or borrowed sources too.

I plan to begin reading the first chapter this coming Sunday, November 8.

Let me know in the comments if you plan to come along…and especially if you’d like to post about your experiences– leave your blog link!
