Hunh...

So I began the readings in The Artist's Way [herein known as TAW]. All of the intro info and the first chapter. Yes, I'm starting my week a day later than I had planned this week, but that's okay. One day is not going to hurt me in the grand scheme of things.

Starting in earnest...

It is officially 27 September 2010, and this is the day that I and four of my friends start working on The Artist's Way. Yes, we picked up a straggler along the way, so to speak... There was a slight delay, so that books could be procured. But we are going to start in earnest today. J and I will be sharing a book and "fighting" over getting it read, but that shouldn't be too much of a hassle really.

The last time I did this was in college, required for a women and creativity course I was taking. I didn't take to the whole situation very well. That was typical of me for required readings, which I tended to hate. But I'm definitely willing to give it another shot. Hopefully it'll work out better this time around...

Let's see what comes about, shall we?

The Artist's Way

So I suppose it's time I actually start using this thing, eh? I'll do a proper introductory post in the next day or so, but I wanted to at least get something put in here, and what better way than to discuss what I'm going to be doing in the near future...

As of 20 September 2010, I will be embarking on a 36-week journey. Three friends and I are going to be working our way through The Complete Artist's Way: Creativity as a Spiritual Practice by Julia Cameron. I tried going through the first book many, many years ago, but it just didn't work out for me. Hopefully, this friendly and artistic group of friends will get through the entire series of lessons and come out far more artistically fertile and creatively rejuvenated by the time we're done.

And yes, I'll be posting about this often here.
