“THE ARTIST’S WAY by Julia Cameron is not exclusively about writing—it is about discovering and developing the artist within whether a painter, poet, screenwriter or musician—but it is a lot about writing. If you have always wanted to pursue a creative dream, have always wanted to play and create with words or paints, this book will gently get you started and help you learn all kinds of paying-attention techniques; and that, after all, is what being an artist is all about. It’s about learning to pay attention.”

–Anne Lamott, Writer“The premise of the book is that creativity and spirituality are the same thing, they come from the same place.

[THE ARTIST’S WAY] helped me put aside my fear and not worry about whether the record would be commercial.”
