Embracing prayer as a way to tap into the divine spark of creativity
I've been reading Julia Cameron's books on the Artist Way since the early 1990s when she first started publishing. She has transformed my creative life and this book while a little bit of my comfort zone. She mentions in the introduction that she hit rock bottom and gave up drinking, which I never knew of her. And while she speaks briefly of the concept of a higher power that is part of Alcoholic Anonymous. So this might be a good book for someone in AA, but it's not the focus.As part of the Artist Way series, she has you write three morning pages, take two weekly walks, and an Artist Date each week. She has you do different exercises to engage in a dialogue with God. But for me, I used the Goddess in my exercises. I got this on the Kindle so I need to go back and highlight the different exercises so I can continue to try them as I continue my morning pages. Highly recommend this book to those who enjoy the Artist Way and are not offended by the idea of embracing prayer as part of your daily life.

Spirituality 101 (A Gateway to The Artist's Way)
I adore Julia Cameron and The Artist's Way is brilliant. That said, this is a beginner's book. This could be a great starting point for those who are new to exploring their concept of God. But as an Artist's Way devotee who has been writing morning pages for years, I was searching for something to go deeper. This was not that book, but I'll keep looking!

Another Julia masterpiece
This book came at a time in my writing life where I needed to seek guidance, and welcome the answers. I love her writing style, which is a balm to my soul. I’m so thankful for her non-theological look at adding prayer to my writing world.

How to talk to God and write about it.
Still reading the book. Fantastic so far. Julia Cameron is a wonderful author with numerous books on writing. Talks about Morning Pages - a free writing exercise that clears the mind. Great book.
