Once again, we’re doing The Artist’s Way together – or I’m doing it and am hoping that some of you will join me. I’ve moved on to the second book in Julia Cameron’s series, which is called Walking in the World. It’s similar but explores new areas. I’ve done TAW about 8 times over the past 15 years, so it’s time for some variety. We’ll check in each Monday – yes, I’m late this week – and maybe compare notes. The program takes 12 weeks.
What I noticed this first week was how much I need reminding to do my Artist Date. I’m trying to schedule one in each week – I do forget, so maybe if it’s on the calendar, I’ll remember. Still doing my morning pages from last time, so that’s all good. And her new assignment is a weekly walk of 20 minutes duration – well, I do that every day already, and always go for more than 20 minutes, so I have that covered.
What about you? Any revelations or reminders on the first week?

Nope, I forgot that we were starting again. Have to go dig out TAW and my morning pages notebook.
I think K. is rubbing off on me. Feel very unorganized and chaotic this week.

Maybe it’s the weather. I’m having a scattered week, too.

Not doing it. So stressed from lack of sleep right now that I can barely find the upright button for the day.
Yet writing is happening. Slowly but surely thanks to some people that won’t let me not do it.
And a week at a lake, with both of them, might include more impetuous to get going and stop doubting.
Good luck.
