She is the bestselling author of more than forty books, fiction and nonfiction; a poet, songwriter, filmmaker and playwright. Commonly referred to as 'The Godmother' or 'High Priestess' of creativity, her tools are based in practice, not theory, and she considers herself 'the floor sample of her own toolkit.'

Reviews for Walking in This World
98 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The basic formula offered in this book is to write a morning journal to cleanse and open your thoughts for the day, and to take a weekly art date and/or walk to encourage inspiration and spark creativity, while following a scheduled program to overcome other things, like procrastination.
I don’t devalue those suggestions, because they are excellent, especially if one feels stuck in creativity and life itself. However, they aren’t exactly innovative ideas, and it doesn’t take a whole book like this to explain how to do it without leaving a feeling of pedantic, and long-winded. The author’s approach to writing the book was such that it basically felt like I was reading a first-person diary, rather than a first-person authored exploration into new ideas.... this made it difficult to get into the actual subject of the book simply because the subject itself was a constant tug of war between being the intended content versus the author simply writing a memoir with a handful of tips and suggestions along the way.
If you can get past all of that, you might enjoy the book. I could not, and though I feel bad about it, I can only give two stars.2 people found this helpful

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A moment in time. An excellent book to be reading over the New Year's holiday, and an excellent book to be reading when I'm trying to ramp up my walking regime. I need this really important reminder of the connection between my creativity and getting enough exercise.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love Julia Cameron. This book was given to me by a woman from my church women's group. It was the PERFECT inspirational guide I needed for the summer. I read a chapter a day and was transformed!
