I bought this book thinking it would be like Sarah Ban Breathnach's "Simple Abundance" daybook, with daily readings which would steer you towards your creative side. Instead, the book has fascinating and thought-provoking reflections. As long as you realise this is what you're getting, you'll be delighted!

The Artist's Way -- a Minute a Day
23 Nov 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'd felt creatively flat and had recently returned to the wellspring -- Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way and its twin practices of Morning Pages and Artist Dates. So I was interested to see that Cameron has sliced her material in a new and accessible way in this collection of daily excerpts about the creative process. Might there be magic in her tiny inspirations, ingested every day?
I opened the book to that day's entry, November 14: "So often in a creative career, the magic that is required is quite simply the courage to go on. Singers must sing their scales. Actors must learn their monologues. Writers like myself must spend time at the keys. We would like a break in the weather. We would like a break, period, but the breaks, if they come, will not come today. Today is about keeping on."
Bingo.
A few notes. The excerpts range from a couple of sentences to a full page; most are a paragraph. (I uploaded a photo [under the book's cover image on the main page] to show a representative sample.) Though it's not a journal, there is room to make notes in the generous amount of white space. And to clarify the product description that this "little book can easily be carried along" -- it's a little chunk of a book, 400+ pages and sized between a mass-market and a trade paperback.
Highly recommended to inspire -- and ground :) -- anyone in creative pursuit.

Inspiration EVERY Day
17 Feb 2010
Format:Paperback
Can't recommend this little daily reading enough. A person with the usual artist's lethargy...I simply agreed with myself to READ it every day. Didn't need to DO anything....just read...
WOW What affirmations awaited me. No I'm not out in the studio painting like a crazy lady...but I AM recovering, one day at a time.
THANKS JULIA!!!

Julia's Bright and Shining Believing YES Mirror in beautiful daily nuggets
23 July 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Julia Cameron's heart, wisdom, encouragement and talent continues to know just how to combine safety, connection and encouraging inspiration for me. I love this chunk of a book and count on receiving just the appropriate (loving, welcoming and warm) invitation I love in order to step out and reach a bit further.
I can open ANY page randomly and get the something I need to continue. I do like that it is also a Daily Inspiration.
This book is a lovely gift I have given to others also working the on-and-off journey of their art.
Thank you dear Julia Cameron for your ongoing demonstration of living courage and generous sharing.
