Book Synopsis
A guide to getting (and staying) unblocked
Every artist--or aspiring creator--knows the sting of being stuck. Blasting Through Blocks is a "good news" book: yes, you will find yourself in its pages. You'll recognize the resistance, the internal critic, the fear of failure, the perfectionism, the inertia. But the promise here is simple: you can always unblock. You don't need grand methods or deep dives into theory--just the willingness to work with small, powerful tools.
Across 52 essays, you'll encounter one creative block and one practical practice each week. Some tools will feel familiar--rooted in The Artist's Way heritage--but many will surprise you with their straightforwardness, their clarity, their freshness. Over time, these practices build into a living, flexible toolkit you can revisit whenever you feel stuck again.
This is a book for personal pilgrimage and communal practice alike. Use it as a companion through a year of your creative life. Bring it to your writing group or your classroom. Gift it to any artist in your life. As these pages light up one shadow at a time, you'll begin to see the spiritual and psychological pathways through your creative difficulties--and rediscover why your work matters.
