#TheArcadian by #StevenPressfield is a Historical Fiction set in war-torn Late Medieval Spain that asks a lot of metaphysical questions without ever feeling forced. Narrated expertly by #GeorgeGuidall in a storyteller's deep voice. Thank you #RBmedia & #NetGalley for the e-audio ALC. #BookSky

FWIW, these are the 3 best #writing books I've ever read:

- ON WRITING by #StephenKing
- ZEN IN THE ART OF WRITING by #RayBradbury
- THE WAR OF ART by #StevenPressfield.

Why? They explore mindset 🧠 as the creative glue. 😀 ✍️

“People say that writing is a form of self- expression. I don’t believe it. Writing is a form of self discovery. I don’t think any of us have any idea at all what we’re doing. Our Muse leads us.” —Steven Pressfield

Author #StevenPressfield says if you want to get out of the dumps, put your ass where your heart wants to be. For me, that’s music, playing with words or paint colors. 🎶🖊🎨 Or dreaming up something that doesn’t exist yet. 🤔💭✨I wonder…where does your heart want to be? #joy #virgoseason #relationships

This book ain’t gonna write itself! Continuing to work on my new nonfiction project: helping freelancers negotiate better deals for their work. But first, a little inspiration from “The Daily Pressfield”.
