NEXT MEETING: Week 6 Discussion | Sunday, April 26th from 4PM-5PM
Many people subtly suspect they are more creative than their lives currently allow.
The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron was written for exactly this person. Structured as a 12-week process, the book helps readers recover their creative life through a few deceptively simple practices — most famously Morning Pages (three handwritten pages each morning) and Artist Dates (small weekly excursions designed to nourish curiosity).
Last Sunday, a small group of us gathered for our meeting and discusses Week 5: Recovering a Sense of Possibility. It reminds you how powerful it can be to sit in a room with others who are also curious about their creative life.
For many readers, the book functions as something unexpectedly powerful: a permission slip to make things again, be curious, and to take creativity seriously without needing to justify it.
I completed the program once before and found it meaningful enough that I’m beginning it again three years later, this time in the company of others.
This book club is for anyone who feels the call to creativity but hasn’t quite made space for it yet — writers, artists, entrepreneurs, thinkers, or simply the creatively curious.
We’ll be discussing Week 6: Recovering a Sense of Abundance this coming Sunday, April 26th from 4PM–5PM, and new participants are always welcome.
If you’re planning to join, I recommend first calling or stopping by our local bookstores to purchase the book and read the week 3 material: Spellbound Bookery and Pages Turned, LLC. Our local Books-A-Million also carries the book. For those who prefer online shopping, many independent bookstores ship, and Amazon is available as a last resort. If you aren’t able to get a copy before our next gathering on Sunday, April 26th I’m happy to print the chapter 6 so you can still participate.
What to bring:
• A copy of The Artist’s Way
• A notebook or journal
• A pen or pencil you enjoy writing with
Every so often, a small invitation arrives at the precise moment it’s needed, and perhaps, just perhaps, it has found you.
