Keeping up Artist Dates

Let's say you have kept up your Morning Pages and yet you still find yourself "blocked." I would ask if you let your Artist Dates go by the board. Many artists use this tool only until it works. They go on Artist Dates, encounter a new and enriching flow of insights and ideas, and then, when one idea seized them with force, they focus on it and work it like they are mining gold and they'd better stay down in that mine. Do I need to tell you eventually they work the vein clean? If you have given up your Artist Dates, start them again and do get out for some long, mulling walks. These may feel like work until you have nudged your mind awake. But you will quickly find your mental process interesting and your creative flow free.
