I have been a practitioner of Julia Cameron's 3-pages per day for years. Until I discovered 10-minutes here at Brainstorm Road. I must admit, that I would skip days with the 3-pages if I didn't have the 30-40 minutes to get to the end of my third page. With 10 minutes per day, I usually have almost 2 pages. Somehow the time-page ratio is better with 10 minutes, and that makes me happy!! It's "the least I can do, divide by half" - Ten minutes is almost always possible. Give it a try!
I have resisted morning pages for that same reason. The first time I tried it, it took six hours to download my thoughts for the morning, then the day was over. Ten minutes feels more manageable! 😂
I haven't necessarily looked for a comparable version for artist's dates - I took her idea and ran with it to make it my own. I get why she says 'go out' somewhere for the artist date, but I've allowed myself to browse art museums online, for example.

Yes, same, Jacquie! Ten minutes really is almost always possible. It's a magic little pocket of time.

The Artist’s Way. Have you found a comparable version for the artist’s date? (The time you take yourself on a date to fuel your imagination?)

You can browse museums online?! That is cool
Google has a starting page - https://artsandculture.google.com/ - a nice discovery ;-)
And just now, had a spontaneous Artist Date with Monet https://artsandculture.google.com/project/monetwashere
Good idea, thanks! I forgot that was possible.
