One of my all time favorite writer’s is Julia Cameron author of The Artist Way.
I have the companion book to this called the Artist Date Book. I’ve only ever skimmed the date book, but just having it nearby me is enough of a reminder that I need to take action.
The Artist’s Date Book – by Julia Cameron
With a blogging brain that’s a little empty, I decided my new approach would be to take a book that I had bought last summer at a garage sale called Landscape Meditations by Elizabeth Mowry and try paint a picture. Since we’re in a Polar Vortex right now, I choose a snowy field thinking I could best relate to this picture.

Have you ever tried writing with your non-dominant hand? The two hemispheres, when the other is individually sedated, can appear to have different personalities. Such writing can be like hearing your inspiration directly.
Wow that’s sounds cool, thanks I’ll give it a try, I’ll call it my left handed blog !
