i have told many of you my story of how i came to open a shop. opening a shop has been something i have wanted to do for a very long time. it started as a kid, i remember going into this punk rock shop in connecticut called 'bonnie & clyde', i thought this was the most awesome shop i had ever seen. i have always thought how great it would be to create a shop, carefully pick the inventory and get to have fun meeting the customers.
i would say i didn't think i was creative enough to open a shop for a long time. i would not have considered myself an artist, until i read the book 'the artist's way' about 3 years ago. i 'did' this book with a wonderful friend of mine. i say we 'did' it because it is a 12 week course book, taking one on a journey to find our creativity and the artist in each of us.
so...doing the artist's way was a big turning point for me and that is when i decided i was going to open a shop. three years later here we are and i feel great about it! yes, scared and stressed at times, but really glad i took a chance to go outside of my comfort zone.
due to the big impact this book had on me, i have decided to start selling the books at take heart.
we have three options:
the classic - the artist's way - a spiritual path the higher creativity
the daily reader - the artist's way - a year of creative living
the starter kit - the artists way + the morning pages journal
if anyone has any questions or wants to talk further about the book, i would love to, just come by the shop, call or send an email...
