I’ve lost it.
‘It’ isn’t something solid, visual, with shape or form.
‘It’ is invisible, until I make it visible.
But only visible on the page or the screen.
So how do I find something so illusive?
go for a walk?
bake some bread?
get quiet or turn the music up?
get really tired or be rested and energetic?
Oh, I know! Get my nails dirty in the garden.
The fickle muse vanishes without so much as a
‘See you later!’
Rather unkind, don’t you think?
But I’m a patient person…
I'll continue to create anyway!
So there.
“Inspiration is the windfall from hard work and focus.
Muses are too unreliable to keep on the payroll.”
~ Helen Hanson, author
