Steven Pressifled is the author of one of my most-favorite books on creativity, The War of Art: How to Breakthrough your inner creative battles. It’s a wonderful book.
Pressfield had written in his blog that he is thinking about writing a part two to this book! How exciting. Sure hope he does.
Here is what Publishers Weekly said about The War of Art:
Novelist Steven Pressfield (The Legend of Bagger Vance; Gates of Fire) goes self-help in The War of Art: Winning the Inner Creative Battle. Dubbing itself a cross between Sun-Tzu's The Art of War and Julie Cameron's The Artist's Way, Pressfield's book aims to help readers "overcome Resistance" so that they may achieve "the unlived life within." Whether one wishes to embark on a diet, a program of spiritual advancement or an entrepreneurial venture, it's most often resistance that blocks the way. To kick resistance, Pressfield stresses loving what one does, having patience and acting in the face of fear.
