I stumbled along this book while I was looking for bottles at Target, and I was a bit wary about this. Mostly because it was so ridiculously bright and because I groaned about yet another book about Creative Writing. Pale purple with a big pop of almost neon orange are definitely not something that makes me want to buy a book. I know, we’re all told not to judge a book by its cover, but let’s be real, we all do it and that’s something that isn’t going to change for me. I will admit that I have bought my fair few books that are just plain pretty and have…

This week is all about Discovering a sense of personal territory and I feel that this was definitely something that I found I resonated with the most. All of the essays are definitely hitting home with collecting my energy, saying no where it counts and really digging in. I feel like WITW is talking to many parts of me, just as TAW had. How many days this week did you do your Morning Pages? I have been better than before but to be honest? Not many. It hard with everything else going on but I’m working on it. Something I’ve been really careful with is not beating myself up about…

I had this written out and my computer seemed to have lost it, which is so frustrating but here we are, again. But also I guess I deserved it, I didn’t save it properly. One of the things I always, alllllwaaays stress is to back up your words or at least implement autosave, I have no idea why mine didn’t do it, but whatever. Clearly it just meant that I had to write it again. I don’t know about you, but I love listening to podcasts and one of the podcasts I really love is Being Boss with Kathleen Shannon and Emily Thompson. It’s full of so many great tips…

Ahh the lucky last book on The Menagerie Trilogy: Fury by Rachel Vincent. If you’ve followed along, you’ll know what I’m talking about but if you haven’t here’s my review of Book 1 and Book 2. I have to say that I forgot that I had this, it’s been a little bit stressful and I’ve been consumed by work and my health. I’m going to do an update real soon about my health, I’m managing it but I don’t want it to take over this review. Let’s get into it, but also beware, there may be some spoilers. Fury is the final instalment into the Menagerie Trilogy and where we…

This week is all about discovering a sense of adventure and looking at personal baggage. The essays are about claiming a great sense of freedom and just how to dismantle unconscious mechanisms that have been put in place to stop artistic expression. Cameron focuses on just how much self-acceptance is the route to self-expression. Most of these essays seem to be talking right at me and it’s something How many days this week did you do your Morning Pages? I’ve turned a new page! Literally. I’ve started to make sure that I’ve been making time to do them, and if it’s not in the morning, I’m doing them when I…

Here we are again! Another Julia Cameron book, another 12 weeks to get through. I debated doing a read through and then going back and not doing it, but I couldn’t help myself, I have to go through an do it week by week, even if it means I may mess up, but you know what? I’m ok with that. This week was all about discovering a Sense of Origin. 1. How many days this week did you do your Morning Pages? I managed to get, maybe, 4 out of the 7 days? I think. It’s been a tough week this week. I’ve had to get up and really push…
