Many artists swear by following the 12-week plan laid out in this book as a method for getting unstuck with your art, as Cameron will tell you at length in the newest edition. Personally, I find her two basic exercises—the Morning Pages (write 3 pages about uncensored anything every morning) and the Artist’s Date (once a week, go somewhere or do something by yourself that you have been wanting to do that has to do with your dream or your art) helpful for keeping on track under difficult circumstances.
However, in my opinion, nothing beats actual practice! The rest of the book is psychological self-help which you may or may not find useful. My bought-used copy of the book is carefully underlined in pink highlighter through the middle of the chapter on Week 1, and the rest of the book is unmarked. It is likely to be more effective if you do it with a couple of other people to keep everyone focused. The program has helped many people—read the excerpts on Amazon and see how it strikes you.
