A record of how we honor ourselves

In our heady western culture it seems as if people put more energy and time into dating someone else instead of themselves. Julia Cameron's Artist Date book is a journal, memoir, and daily diary that acts as a testament of our self-love. Playful in its design and simple in its guidance. By taking ourselves out on Artist's date we open ourselves, and most critically - our hearts, to receive our natural artistic, soulful, and creative inheritance from the world. The best fiction tales are conceived on a date with oneself because the essence of our true voices are nourished.

Wonderful companion book for The Artist's Way

A great addition to The Artist's Way. This has suggestions for Artist's Dates, inspirational drawings by Julia Cameron's sister, a place to check your morning pages as done and a few lines to comment on whatever, the drawing on the page, what you did on your artist date. This is not meant to take the place of the morning pages but to complement the whole process. Worth the money.

Great gift or tool for followers of the Artists Way

The Artist's Way : A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity by Julia Cameron has developed a devoted following among people searching for ways to develop, unblock, or discover their art. The keys to the success of this program are the Morning Pages, Artist's Dates, and the creative exercises outlined in the original book. This companion book provides a useful and fun way to monitor your progress and to keep on track.Elizabeth Cameron Evans (whom I suspect is Julia's daughter) playfully illustrates each page of the book with ideas for Artist Dates as well as a checkbox for the days Morning Pages and room for notes. As someone who has benefited greatly from Ms. Cameron's work, but has more than once 'fallen off the wagon', I find the Artist's Date Book to be an excellent, fun way to keep on track. Dave
