The Miracle of Morning Pages: Everything You Always Wanted to Know About the Most Important Artist's Way Tool: A Special from Tarcher/Penguin Kindle Edition

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 460 ratings

In this invaluable companion to Julia Cameron’s seminal work on the creative process, The Artist’s Way, she provides answers to the most frequently asked questions about her most powerful tool for unblocking creative stores: Morning Pages. According to Cameron, keeping a Morning Pages Journal is essential to cultivating creativity and personal growth. These pages of longhand, stream-of-consciousness writing will provoke, clarify, comfort, cajole, prioritize, and synchronize the day at hand. The Miracle of the Morning Pages Journal clarifies and expands upon the ins and outs of the art of keeping a Morning Pages Journal.

Also included in this e-special is an excerpt from
The Artist's Way for Parents, the most highly requested addition to Julia Cameron's canon of work

It was a great read. It really helped me see the importance of the morning pages and how they unlock my creative side! Thank you so much!

I got this booklet when it was on offer, so I thought it was good value for money. As I write this, the price has been bumped to 9.99, which I find outrageous. For that amount of money, you’re better off skipping it - you can find everything you need to know about Morning Pages online for free.
It all boils down to this: write 3 pages (around 750 words) every morning. The author insists that these pages have to be written long-hand (does anyone write shorthand?) and by hand. To that I say: if it makes a difference between doing it and not, type those pages! Also, while writing in the morning is definitely more productive (not to mention more likely to get done), it’s not going to be a disaster if you occasionally write at some other time of day. Finally, it may come as a shock to the system to start with 3 pages right off the bat. Make it manageable by setting a doable time or word limit, and increasing that every 7-10 days, until you get to the full 3 pages. Trust me, by the time you’re a month or two in (and by then the habit is established), you’ll be writing 3 pages worth of thoughts like a champ.
In short, it’s worth doing (read the Artist’s Way for more on that), but make it easy on yourself by not allowing dogmatic instructions to keep you from actually doing it.

I've heard about this author's book "The Artist's Way" for years now, but only recently read it. I realize I miss having creativity in my life. I tried writing Morning Pages for 3 weeks, struggling to stay awake each morning. I got this Kindle book to get more insight, hopefully, because I desperately need a morning routine. I enjoyed this little book, especially the short paragraphs about being snowed in and writing. Not sure if I would have liked it as much had I read it soon after reading Artists Way, as it has basically the same information. Still, it was a quick and cozy read and I may just try Morning Pages again!

The book is interesting, I am giving a try to the practice of Morning Pages and I am liking it.

The fact is that what the author write about this exercise as if it was the “magic bullet” to solve any trouble in your life. It has the same tone of an average self-help book. It mentions all these examples of people who started writing morning pages and found happiness and success. But, for none of them she gives a complete reference. I mean, if you write that someone thanked you because after she started writing morning pages she understood she wanted to write a book and found the courage and the energy to do it, and now she has published several books and is an accomplished author, why don’t you tell me who this women actually is? Why don’t you give me her complete name so that I can verify? It makes me guess if this women actually exists...

The second point is that there are lots of questions I have about the Morning Pages, that are not really solved by this book. Like:
.What if writing the MP one understands he/she is has some psychological problem?
.What if writing the MP one understands that her/his true desire is something that would hurt other people?
.What are the negative aspects of MP? I mean, everything that is good has some negative aspects, even if small ones.
.What scientific support does this practice have?

So, the only really useful information I have found are:
-Write as soon as you get up. Try not to lose time making coffe or brushing your teeth, because the more time passes from when you get up the less connection with the true self you will have while you are writing.
-Write longhand, because you want your thinking process to be slowed down.
-Write three pages of a 11x8.5 handbook. More space would make you lose momentum, less space would make you think small.
-Don’t read your previous pages for at least two months, and don’t allow anyone to read them. You have to be free to write anything.

This book really did answer the deeper questions I had pertaining to my morning pages practice. Even if you haven't read The Artist's Way, this book will explain everything you need to know about this particular artist's tool. I feel confident I will now receive more from this morning ritual of mine.

What I liked about this book is that it directed me to write my inner feelings of myself, not just think them over and over in my head. I think I am in tune with my inner Creator and was encouraged by the premise that my morning papers gave the Creator something to work with in providing answers and direction. I have some pretty heavy obstacles to work on and I think this is an answer to removing those obstacles. I'll start writing my morning papers tomorrow.

This book has been extremely helpful to me as an artist and a writer The author having been so successful as a writer, lecturer, and artist, shares from the heart her best recommendations for clearing the decks before your day of creativity begins. I have followed Julia Cameron's guidelines for ridding myself of any mind clutter early in the day and found that it paves the way for a more indepth mode of creativity throughout that day. In addition to the main tried and true guideline, the book is packed with a wellspring of valuable information to keep creativity humming.

This is a terrific synopsis of one of the greatest take aways from The Artist's Way. Morning Pages will become my first action of each day going forward. I'm excited to get to know myself on a more intimate level and discover what else this life has in store for me to explore. If you are looking for a great intro into The Artist's Way, this is it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great explanation
Reviewed in Canada on December 13, 2017
I have heard so much about Morning Pages from different blogs and self help articles and I know it was from Julia Cameron. This short book/chapter about it is just the perfect size to fully explain how to do the pages and what you can potentially gain from it. I will give the practice a go and see if I get any changes from it. In the mean time though, if you wanna just know about the Morning Pages without reading the whole book, definitely grab this one, it is sufficient enough.

3.0 out of 5 stars Morning Pages: The Artist's Way
Reviewed in Germany on July 9, 2017
This book expands on probably the most important tool discussed in Julia Cameron's book "The Artist's Way". I would definitely recommend it because it is a quick read and it can be a very rewarding experience to write these morning pages.

There is however a large section at the end in relation to parenting which does not fit in this book and seems completely unrelated to the Morning Pages. I actually stopped reading when I got to this section so do note that the book which actually talks about the morning pages is only about 65% of the book and the rest is completely irrelevant unless one is a parent.

Based on the fact that such a large part of the book is based on something irrelevant and unrelated to the Morning Pages I rate this 3. I would much rather simply buy her book "The Artist's Way". This seems like a bit of an attempt to make more money off readers who follow her religiously.
