The Artist’s Way
All my life, I have been in a constant battle with the two sides of my brain. Who’s going to win out, my left-brain or my right-brain? When I was growing up, I was incredibly right-brained, creative, was in art shows, played the piano, took photography courses, was a photographer, and had my own darkroom. …

We had invited a friend over for dinner, and we’re going to make hamburgers. The challenge was we didn’t have any ground meat. I suggested we get some already made. She went to the store, and that was the end of our discussion. Our friend came over, and we were hanging outside because it was…

I mean, who doesn’t love fortune cookies and getting that awesome fortune inside. Forget the cookie. (They are quite tasty, though.) Just give me my fortune, please. The author…
A Still, Small Voice…
Reading this book was almost like magic was happening every day. I think that coupled with me being on week 8 of The Artist’s Way (By Julia Cameron) morning pages, it all certainly spurned by right-brain onwards. Interestingly, I only picked this book up after my niece’s insistence, an artist and art teacher. I’ve been…
