    …sounds wonderful! Wild, most likely an imporbable question…but…can anything like this be creatively done in cyberspace…’cause it gets expensive to fly weekly to the NW. :) You post things like this and it almost (as in “almost”) makes we want to move. Or you could move. Or……. I hope these moments bloom well for all of you. …blessings! Wes

    I would not be writing, blogging, or any of this, if it were not for the Artist’s Way. It’s Not for everyone, but i appreciate Cameron’s fearless willingness to use spiritual language in her approach–the system worked for me, and 8 years later, I’m still doing Morning Pages and Artist Dates. Its strength lies in its order and structured approach, its borrowing from the 12-Step AA experience.

    Your people are lucky that you and the phellow phriars (as in Abbey, get it? {grin}) are offering this.

    You’ll enjoy it, except maybe for the No-Reading week…. {mischievous grin}

    I agree with Peter on everything - Artist’s Way changed my life, got me writing regularly, AND the no-reading week practically killed me.

    I have wanted to offer an Artists Way group at our place for 2 years. I’ve shared it with a bunch of individuals, but the group has not yet come about. Good for you! God Bless this endeavor! Let me know how it goes -what’s great and what doesn’t work out.

    Lovely! Makes me wish I was a local yokel :-)
    Artists Way groups are wonderful and I am sure yours will be especially so.
