Q: Why haven't you written any blogs in such a long time, Miss Maxali?
NM: Well, I'm glad you asked...For the past month, beginning on September 4th...I've been rediscovering my creativity. Taking time out to write daily, my private thoughts/fears/aspirations/manifestations/opinions/ideas/foolishness/venting sessions/art
Q: HOW have you been "rediscovering" your creativity?
NM: Well, through my own spirituality and by reading "The Artists Way" by Julia Cameron.
Q: What's the "Artists Way"?
NM: Not to shamelessly plug the book...but more to give you an insight on how you too can rediscover those lost dreams. Or unleash your own creativity...
"The Artist's Way is the seminal book on the subject of creativity. An international bestseller, millions of readers have found it to be an invaluable guide to living the artist's life. Still as vital today-or perhaps even more so-than it was when it was first published one decade ago, it is a powerfully provocative and inspiring work. In a new introduction to the book, Julia Cameron reflects upon the impact of The Artist's Way and describes the work she has done during the last decade and the new insights into the creative process that she has gained. Updated and expanded, this anniversary edition reframes The Artist's Way for a new century."
Yes, so for a month now, I've dedicated myself to this 12 week program...or a 12 week process to allowing myself to create on a higher level.
NM: Here's a cheesey testimonial for ya'll...Just within one month of starting this process, I've been able to manifest:
1) A kick-ass IMPROV performance at this year's APATure: Pinoy Playback Theater
2) Produce my first Short Film: Simila-Shun Directed by Jeannie Barroga
3) Book my first Stand-Up Comedy Show: Bacio Cafe in San Mateo on October 4th
4) Write everyday!
Now with just one month into this process...just think what I can manifest in 12 weeks? I think the world will never be the same.
