Minding the Muse A Handbook for Painters, Composers, Writers, and Other Creators by Priscilla Long

This is a great short book and as the tittle suggests this suitable for all creative types. I really enjoyed this read partly because it was short and to the point but also because gained some really cool insights and practices that I will use to help me in my creative endeavours.

Priscilla is an artist herself with a background in writing and teaches others how to master their practice. In this book she draws on her experience and also that of other famous and successful artists. It is also an important reminder that just because something works for one person it doesn’t mean it will work for you. The ideas, practices and techniques shared in this book should be approached with openness and awareness of this.

In a logical approach Priscilla shares here knowledge and insight with a progressive sense from her opening chapter, Learning to Work, to her closing chapter, Developing High Self-Regard. The chapter’s in between focus on overcoming obstacles, mastering and fine tuning your skills, to understanding your feelings and creating space in your artistic world.

I summarise in efforts to keep my review brief by saying that is a worth while read for all aspiring artists or even artists that matter looking for a little inspiration and motivation to reigniting their passion. You will be able to inspire yourself within a night.
