Book description
'Lately, I am trying to provoke myself into art - into writing... I
wasn't exactly in despair - I was in cynicism, which is despair's more
torpid sister... Let me tell you how writing snuck back on me.' Whether
you are starting from scratch or need a gentle nudge back in the right
direction, The Sound of Paper is a wonderful creative companion. Through
inspiring essays and practical tasks, it stimulates creativity so that
the reader becomes more and more familiar with their own strengths.
Including her own fascinating journey from writer's block back to
productive work, which takes the reader across America from New York to
New Mexico, this is a story of inspiration infused with brilliantly
practical suggestions, the perfect combination for anyone on the path to
creativity. Julia Cameron is the author of fifteen books, fiction and
non-fiction, many plays and movies. She lives in the high desert of New
Mexico where she busies herself with movies, musicals, poetry, horses
and dogs. She has taught extensively for two decades from London to Los
Angeles, from Esalen to the New York Times. Her work on Creativity
features the bestselling books The Artist's Way, The Vein of Gold, The
Right to Write, Transitions, Blessings and Heartsteps.
