Wow just Wow!
Have you read “BIG MAGIC” by Elizabeth Gilbert?
This amazing woman has undeniably captured the hearts and minds worldwide with her profound insights on life’s creative journey. The one book which everyone I have spoken to have called it a “masterpiece”. It seems to have captured the hearts of so many creatives beckoning them towards a realm of boundless inspiration and uncharted possibilities.
More than anything I do believe “Big Magic” gives every creative, who is trying to find their purpose, a lot of hope. Though I’ve purchased this book twice, its destiny was gifted to others before I could explore its pages. Yet, my admiration for Elizabeth extends far beyond her written words. Her online presence, marked by resilience, tenderness and an unwavering attitude towards life’s unexpected and messy experiences, has captivated my attention.
If you follow her here on Substack and have read her books, no doubt you’ll know she is touring Europe next April. In anticipation of an upcoming event in London, I’ve now downloaded Big Magic as an audiobook, already hooked. A dear friend,
equally enchanted by Gilbert’s wisdom, texted me her love for “Big Magic” saying the book deeply resonated with her. So last night we booked to attend Elizabeth Gilberts 2 day workshop in London, excited is an understatement!Gilberts Europe Tour commences on the 9th April and spanning through Southampton, Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham, which promises to an epic odyssey for the soul.
As I eagerly await the event, I urge you to delve into “Big Magic” if you haven’t yet done so. I’ve loved listening to her dulcet tones via my audiobook version, a wonderful way to relax after a busy day. This book will be on repeat for many years to come. I really do believe it has left me spellbound.
Please do let me know if you have read “Big Magic” and what your thoughts are of it. Has it inspired you to push forward with your creative endeavours? Are you attending any of her talks in 2024? You never know we might end up at the same event and possibly make it a Substacker get together IRL.
Until the next time
Take care & stay safe xx
Oh my goodness! I want to go so much. I live near Southampton and I am very tempted - I've even looked at the VIP tickets 😱
I love Big Magic and have read it 4 times. I have the Kindle edition and the audio-book and I have put the paperback on my Christmas list so that I can fill it with notes and highlights and have it on my desk. It speaks everything that I have felt about creativity in my subconscious but never had the words to say.
I've read it and loved it! I might now just have to download the audio version for a listen 🥰
