Week 12: Recovering Faith, Writing, & My Review
We are finally here! 🥹 The final week of my Artist's Way journey. Join me in the summery countryside as I reflect on 12 weeks of creative recovery. I'm sharing my final thoughts on "recovering a sense of faith," my verdict on the Morning Pages, and how I'm scrapbooking my "manifesting journal" for the future. My one takeaway? You must read this book.
Week 10: Inner Child Healing
Hello, it's NotesOnDawn! It's been a hectic month as I've been "packing up my life and moving to London", but I'm still on my Artist's Way journey. This week was about "Self-Protection", which I saw as a way to "reconnect with some inner child stuff" . This post is all about a weekend of creative breakthroughs: from my best friend's poetry launch to... getting my very first tattoo!
Week 2-3: Creative Blocks & Manifesting for Writers
Hello, it's NotesOnDawn! This post is a personal look at Weeks 2-3 of my Artist's Way journey. I thought I was just building habits, but my Morning Pages revealed a huge, unexpected blockade I have against manifesting my creative goals (like getting a publisher!). I’m sharing how I'm using Artist Dates to pottery classes and aquariums to learn how to 'receive' again.
Week 1: Morning Pages
Hello, it's NotesOnDawn! I've started The Artist's Way, and this post is my diary of Week One. I'm talking about my new "late spring morning routine" and the scary, liberating new ritual of "morning pages" and how it’s so different from journaling. I'm also sharing my first "Artist Date" to the reservoir and, for my fellow 'AllAboutBooks' lovers, a full "what I read in march" book review special.
