Writers' Notes: Writing and Prayer

According to Julia Cameron (author of The Artist’s Way and The Right to Write), we need to write because we are spiritual beings, and “writing is a powerful form of prayer and meditation, connecting us to our own insights and to a higher and deeper level of inner guidance as well…. Although we seldom talk about it in these terms, writing is a means of prayer. It connects us to the invisible world. It gives us a gate or conduit for the invisible world to talk to us…. Writing gives us a place to welcome the more than rational. It opens the door to inspiration. It opens the door to God.”

Do you find this to be true? How does writing connect you to “the invisible world”? (Comments welcomed!)
