The book that made a real impact on me is The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron. My friend [actress and comedian] Sophie Willan recommended it to me years ago, and I still have it on my desk. It enables anyone to tap into their creative self regardless of themselves - we often get in our own way when trying to achieve. Want to write that novel? That play? This is the book. -- Lemn Sissay
The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron is my favourite book -- Precious Lee * Vogue *
Cameron's morning pages have shaped the lives of millions of others -- Elle Hunt * The Guardian *
