I still struggle with "morning" pages being NOT a morning person, but the idea is good. I also got a lot out of "The Nine Modern Day Muses, and a body guard" by Jill Badonsky, a similar self help type book for blocked creatives. in the interest of full disclosure, the author is a friend... still, its worth a look. took me a loooooong time to finally DO the Artists Way.

Doing the exercises is a loving, spiritual journey. It allowed me to dream again. Thank you for suggesting the group. I know a few people who would embrace this. I love The Artist’s Way.

I've never been much of a believer in self-help books, but this book was a completely new experience. It helped to pull me out of a serious depression, made me realize I wanted to try making visual art, and helped me to reconnect to my writing (which is helpful since I’m a freelance writer!). Doing the work in the book has been worth more to me than any therapy session or angsty night of soul-searching. It’s helped me to remember and recover who I am. (I feel like a loon writing such strong statements about a book, but it’s all true. Loony or not.)
