I follow The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, so every day I start by writing three morning pages. I don't get inspired to write, I clear away the brain clutter and set the stage for writing. It's not easy. I have a story that I started writing nearly four decades ago, and only now am I getting it to the point where - I may not be satisfied with it - but I'm ready to let it go and put it to bed. At the same time, I'm scribbling notes for a future story. When I listen to my artist friend who works with clay and painting, she goes through the same thing - reshaping, painting over. It's the process of writing that is thrilling - connecting with the Creator.
