The Goldberg book is a good read for someone wanting to write but not sure how to get going.

@marjou I have that book, too! I was taken aback to see the wide variety still on my shelves. At one point there were 3 bookcases in my apartment, now down to one 6'. It was difficult to release old friends in printed form. Like many, the printed page is tactile, the borders and pages have notes, pretty interesting to read years later.

I liked the "Artist's Way", although there are times I didn't adhere to the rules. Anytime you start a journey of self-work and discovery, it can be scary. Then there is a lot of times I tell myself "you have to go through the discomfort and darkness to get to the healing". What do you think?
