The Right to Write
The Right to Write: An Invitation and Initiation into the Writing Life | Julia Cameron
5 posts | 4 read | 1 reading | 4 to read
What if everything we have been taught about learning to write was wrong? In The Right to Write, Julia Cameron's most revolutionary book, the author of the bestselling self-help guide The Artist's Way, asserts that conventional writing wisdom would have you believe in a false doctrine that stifles creativity. With the techniques and anecdotes in The Right to Write, readers learn to make writing a natural, intensely personal part of life. Cameron's instruction and examples include the details of the writing processes she uses to create her own bestselling books. She makes writing a playful and realistic as well as a reflective event. Anyone jumping into the writing life for the first time and those already living it will discover the art of writing is never the same after reading The Right to Write.

So I‘m doing a shameless plug...today I am debuting my first #instanovelette (an Instagram Story that‘s a story), A Fairly Conventional Tale!!! It‘s about an office worker who discovers that her new place of employment is not as conventional as she expected—it serves as a counseling center for fairy tale characters. If you‘re on Instagram, come check it out! I‘m at alysonimagines. Making this was a blast, and if you do read it I hope you enjoy! ❤️

"I learn by going where I have to go" ~ Theodore Rodke. That phrase accurately describes my writing life," says Cameron. (Even my cat Squeakers is interested.)

Walking around my local bookstore today and came upon this book. Anyone read it and have any thoughts? I'm interested in starting to use the artists way and wondering if it's a helpful companion.
