This book is very helpful if you do the Artist's way morning pages. In fact, if you are not doing this, I'm not sure what else you would use this book for. I gave it a 4 only because the number of pages for each week were off and it was an awkward book to write in. Other than that it was great. GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT THE AUTHOR INTENDED FOR 3 PAGES OF WRITING When you do the Artist's way journaling, it states you should do 3 pages of writing per day. This book gives you a sense of what the author meant as 3 pages. By the way 3 pages this size took me not the 15-30 minutes the author implied, but more like 45 minutes to 1 hour. It could also be the morning grogginess too. I get up at 5:15AM to do these. NOT ENOUGH PAGES FOR EACH WEEK PLUS A CHECK-IN: As this book is by the same author that did the Artist way 12-week program, I am surprised that the number of pages provided did not meet the authors requirement. Per week you should have at least 21 pages and then 1-2 pages for a weekly check in. I found that I often wrote into the following week though I never wrote over 3 pages/day nor more than a 1 page per check in. 23 pages per week should be what the author provided as a minimum. BOUND-BACK MADE IT AWKWARD TO WRITE AT TIMES: This book would be better as a spiral bound book, so that you could fold back the areas you did not need. At times in the AM, it was all I could do to write much less trying to hold the book open. INSPIRATIONAL SAYINGS EACH DAY PERTAINING TO THAT WEEK WAS NICE: The author paraphrazed the Artist's way book providing page numbers as well, each day. That was nice. It often helped to get my writing jumpstarted. SUGGESTION TO THE AUTHOR: As you recommend to your readers to continue the morning pages a follow on set of books would be handy with the same type of inspirational phrases each day. Buying this book again with the unmatched set of pages and difficulty to hold open, does not appeal to me. This program is a good one and I plan to continue the morning pages. It is a very useful thinking practice. Comment | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)
