I struggle with so many of these.

I love this one too...and have struggled with my own equally-ridiculous versions of this ("If I don't have three full hours to write, then I won't"). Having kids took care of that one, more or less. Now I write in 20-minute increments. ?

This is such a great little book, full of cheeky cartoons about reasons to avoid making art (or writing or acting or basket-weaving or whatever you love).

BookBabe Cute! I love Julia Cameron's illustrations. Somebody should get me this as a present. *ahem* @MrBook 😉 8y
AmyWrites @BookBabe I think her sister did the illustrations! And yes, they are cute. 😃 8y
MrBook @BookBabe I don't think @AmyWrites should gift it to you. 😜 8y
