Begins Tuesdays, June 4th
6:00 - 7:30 PM (MDT)
Virtual Event
Creativity is the natural order of life. Life is energy: pure creative energy.
–Julia Cameron
The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron is a phenomenon.
Despite its humble, self-published beginnings it has gone on to become one of most popular self-help books of all time. It has inspired people all over the globe including Alicia Keys and Pete Townsend, Elizabeth Gilbert, and Kerry Washington.
The book has gone on to sell over 4 million copies. In truth, I had one sitting on my bookshelf for years before I decided to make a commitment to myself and take action.
My Story
Hi, I’m Eric Linden, a songwriter, playwright and facilitator. When I took The Artist's Way off of my bookshelf ⎯I’d been feeling lost and disillusioned.
I was feeling trapped in my day job, anxious, depressed, and completely uninspired…
It was wild how quickly I felt the shift from the simple tools.
Writing the ✍🏼 Morning Pages gave me clarity and helped me silence my inner critic.
The Artist’s Dates helped me feel alive and inspired again.
And yet, there were some difficult mornings. I felt complacency and procrastination creeping back in. I knew I was confronting some of my deep issues and breaking through creative blocks, but part of me was wanting to play it safe.
I was on a path of self-discovery and the creativity was flowing. But part of me still wanted to make a U-turn.

Inspiration for this Book Club
And that’s exactly why I wanted to create a 13-week course so you could have the motivation and accountability needed to get to the most meaningful breakthroughs and highest levels of creativity.
We’ll discuss the Artist Way tools and answer your questions. Our meetings and discussion clusters will provide you with a community, a sounding board, and the motivation to keep going.
We’ll share strategies for success and avoiding common pitfalls. Our structure will adhere to Cameron’s guidelines for Creative Clusters and I act as a facilitator and active participant in the group.

I didn’t want the cost of the workshop to stop anyone from getting the community and support ⎯they need to fully embody the magic ✨ of The Artist’s Way.
