200407#4 re morning pages

The "morning Pages" of Julia Cameron's "artists way at work" book has been a companion for me for many lonely years. Handwriting in a notebook is not the same as typing, so I wonder what will happen if I go to an electronic, computer input, form of Morning Pages or journal. Blog in that catagory too.

The involvement of handwriting's gestural physical activiy surely is part of the process of Morning Pages, which have the primary function of finishing up the processing of the night's sleep. Sometimes useful data gets written, as well as good ideas for subsequent folow-up use; but mostly it is foggy un-losing-it babble, getting oneself together mentally analogous to taking a bath, shaving, and putting clothes on for the day, only mentally.
