“Eric Maisel has made a career out of help­ing artists, musi­cians, dancers, and writ­ers cope with the trau­mas and trou­bles that are the price of admis­sion to the cre­ative life … The author doesn’t just name and solve some com­mon cre­ative prob­lems, he calls on us to cre­ate, and to cre­ate deeply. Fear­less Cre­at­ing mobi­lizes us to think, feel, and act com­pletely, with­out self-editing and self-defeating restraint.”– Intu­ition Magazine

“Fear­less Cre­at­ing is an auda­cious book, broad and exhil­a­rat­ing in scope, clear and com­pelling in descrip­tion. If bravely fol­lowed, it will be of great ser­vice to artists.” – Peter Lon­don, No More Sec­ond­hand Art

“This book gen­er­ates an ecsta­tic inspi­ra­tion to cre­ate. The fresh imme­di­acy of lan­guage, the cogent sug­ges­tions, and Eric Maisel’s respect­ful human aware­ness all pay con­sum­mate trib­ute to artists.” – Peggy Salkind, pro­fes­sor of piano and psy­chol­ogy, San Fran­cisco Con­ser­va­tory of Music

“Fear­less Cre­at­ing is about the tremen­dous power of pas­sion and the chal­lenge of bear­ing it. A gutsy work­book on the con­nip­tions of com­mit­ment and the dig­nity of dar­ing.” – Gregg Levoy, This Busi­ness of Writing

“Maisel knows about anx­i­ety, knows about the tightrope walk between spon­tane­ity and dis­ci­pline in the cre­ative act. This exu­ber­ant book has much to offer the aspir­ing cre­ator.” – Vic­to­ria Nel­son, On Writer’s Block

“Thank you for your book Fear­less Cre­at­ing. It is the first time I’ve read some­thing where I felt under­stood. I almost cried when I read parts that echoed what I’ve felt for so long—it was such a relief to know that some­one out there rec­og­nized what it feels like to want so badly to write and write authen­ti­cally. I need to feel under­stood and your book has helped me feel that. Thank you again.” – N. J., Win­nipeg, Manitoba
