"Attend first to the divine and the work at hand becomes art"

I have been slowly making my way through a book I'm sure a few of you have read - "The Artist's Way" by Julia Cameron.  Everyone should read it. Those even justly slightly artistically or creatively inclined have no excuse not to! It will do your heart and mind a wealth of good! The book has been a project I've been working through with a friend of mine who is one very creative gal! It's been refreshing and has encouraged me to treat my art and my creativity with more respect and tenderness than I have before.

Now that the summer has folded over and we're moving onward and upward into fall I want to let you know that I've got some very cool projects in the works! I'm doing a lot of writing (music) these days! I've also been doing co-writing with some very talented songwriters for an up and coming band. I'll leave it at that for now, but I'll keep you posted when I know more! I am planning a few shows in the Fraser Valley/ Vancouver area for fall and I'll be spending a fair bit of my time writing and creating and dreaming and scheming about an upcoming album. It's never easy to be a broke and inspired musician. But I suppose that I wouldn't fit the stereotype if I wasn't, right? Right, Rachelle. Right.
