My puppy, Violet, is 20 weeks old, so I have her in a crate at night, and the first thing I do is slip on my slippers and let her out. “I’ve had some productions, but I’m hungry for more.” The Cut spoke with Cameron, who lives in the mountains above Santa Fe (“at about 7,800 feet”) with her Westie puppy, Violet May, about quieting one’s inner critic, laughing at rejection, and, of course, the importance of sticking with your Morning Pages. “I’ve written a lot of plays, and they’re notoriously hard to place,” she says. A lifelong creative, she remains in hot pursuit of her next endeavor. The seminal work is beloved by BookTok and Bella Hadid alike, and now Cameron’s back on the creative scene with Write for Life, a six-week Artist’s Way program designed specifically to help writers cultivate their craft and finish whatever it is they’ve been procrastinating on, be it a novel or screenplay.Īt 74, Cameron has enjoyed a prolific writing career, authoring memoirs, short stories, screenplays, musicals, and more. In 1992, the author and teacher published The Artist’s Way, a self-help workbook that guides readers in unblocking their innate creativity, most notably through “Morning Pages,” three stream-of-consciousness journal pages that, when done daily, allow your artistic self to flourish. Julia Cameron is the queen of morning routines - both her own and probably yours or someone you know’s, too. Photo-Illustration: by The Cut Photo: Robert Stivers
