Best books to read 2017 about creativity5/31/2023 Even if you can’t do the exercises, read the whole book. However, I know countless people who own this book and have only read through Week 2 because they didn’t finish the exercises. One word of caution about this book – it is divided into 12 weeks worth of chapters with the premise that you would read one chapter each week and do the corresponding exercises. I would often read each chapter at just the right time. I resonated with so many of the challenges Julia Cameron wrote about and she had an uncanny ability to predict exactly when they would arise. A couple of years later I started teaching classes based on The Artist’s Way. I started looking at myself differently and got more interested in how creativity can be developed over time. The following year I moved to Portland, OR and took a class that followed the 12 weeks of the book. It was the first book I ever bought about creativity (and little did I know there would be many more to follow). I stumbled upon this book in 1998 while perusing the shelves of a small bookstore in Colorado. This is the book that launched me into understanding and exploring my own creativity.
