Last head's up before it happens: I will be returning to college next week (August 12th), so while I will attempt to make one post per week (on the weekend, most likely), there may be weeks that are skipped. Working full time and going to school full time are not helping my addiction to writing!
With that said..
My muse returned to me today. I have missed her these last few months, but she flew through the open window and perched herself on my shoulder as I was getting ready to leave for work. I spent the entire hour drive trying to focus on driving and not parking on the side of the road to write down ideas. I'm happy for her return.. and the seven pages of notes I wrote out once I got to work are proof of that.
I have read biographies, newspaper articles, interviews, etc - in which an artist (writer, poet, musician, painter) introduced their muse as a real life human being. Mine is different. She does not exist outside of my own mind and she was named Arianna after the sister of one of my very first characters.
I'm hoping she plans to stick with me for a bit longer this time, because I need her. Not only for my own writing and musings, but for the Science Fiction writing class I'm taking. We have a lot to go through in the coming months..
