Julia Cameron

My second hero is Julia Cameron.  Her book ‘The Artist’s Way’ not only supported my creativity, but encouraged a sense of adventure and of life opening up to new possibilities when it had felt as if it was going down hill and closing down around me.  It is a book for artists of any description, but as she says, we are all artists, and creativity is a spiritual experience.  It is a workbook so requires you to apply yourself to specific tasks, but it is well worth it. 

The other book of hers which I loved is ‘God is no laughing matter: observations and objections on the spiritual path’, a book with a similar goal to the book I have been writing.  She says ‘It is my hope that you will find this book hardheaded, softhearted, and playful.’
