I LOVED Big Magic. Absolutely loved it. Big Magic reminds me of The Creative Act, Rick Rubin's book that I am reading right now, and both share the philosophy that ideas are germinating in the collective. And that when they land on us, it is indeed UP to us to decide if we will be the messengers! Thank you for this Jillian, meeting you and talking to you was the kick I needed to take my own book idea, and really invest my time and energy in it this year. (First step: finding an agent!)

Big Magic is such a game changer! I also found Artist's Way to be very helpful, as a fellow writer also aspiring to lean further into my creativity.

Speaking directly to my messy note-filled soul! (A friend recently brought up the concept of 'second brain' which as much as a cult as it is common sense)

This is a good one! I just recorded a podcast about money where my theme was, "would money want to be your business partner?" and I chatted about the concept that Future Money is watching you with Current Money to decide if it's going to come your way or not based on the way you are treating Current Money. I think the same is true with creative ideas so I'm so glad you're going to give your amazing creative ideas more energy and time. The world will benefit!

I think you'll love Big Magic. You'd probably also love The Creative Act by Rick Rubin. There are some overlapping themes between them and they're both great in their own way

Thank you for this message. I'm currently waist-deep in a massive writing project that feels heavy but uniquely mine to carry. I appreciate the encouragement to not put it down.
