A while back I did the Artist's Way by Julia Cameron which is a twelve week course to help you get unstuck in your creativity. It was led by French Toast Girl, a very gifted artist who is a wife and mother of three children under four years of age. She is amazingly talented, organized and is my hero. I have signed on to do the second book in the series which is Walking in this World. I hope I get as much out of it as I did the Artist's Way. The two things that are carry overs from Artist's way, are the morning pages and artist's date. So far, I am faithfully doing the morning pages which I have been doing semi-regularly since the first time around. I love getting up each morning and pouring my thoughts out on paper. I can't tell you how therapeutic it is to vent and walk through the fear, anger and frustration. This has been one of the most productive activities I have ever gotten out of any self help book. I highly recommend it to everyone. More on this later.
