"Drawing on her many years of personal experience as both an artist and a teacher, in this book Julia Cameron uncovers the difficult soul work that artists must do to find inspiration. Demonstrating how this involves a process of constant renewal, of starting from the beginning, she writes, "When we are building a life from scratch, we must dig a little. We must be like that hen scratching the soil: 'What goodness is hidden here, just below the surface? ' we must ask."" "With personal essays accompanied by exercises designed to develop the power to infuse one's art with a deeply informed knowledge of the soul, this book is an artist's companion. The Sound of Paper provides readers with a spiritual path for creating the best work of their lives."--BOOK JACKET.

She writes, "When we are building a life from scratch, we must dig a little. We must be like that hen scratching beneath the soil. 'What goodness is hidden here, just below the surface?' we must ask." With personal essays accompanied by exercises designed to develop the power to infuse...
