If you’ve been lucky enough to meet me in person and receive one of my yummy calling cards (hint: we’ve usually been up real close and personal, and I liked it) you know that one of my titles right along with Poet and Professional Distraction, is Muse.\u00a0 It’s no empty threat either.\u00a0 I’ve inspired stories and plays and poems, and even one rock opera.\u00a0 I love when these juicy morsels find their way into my inbox.\u00a0 As some of my regular readers know,\u00a0 I occasionally like to share some of these literary snippets that I muse forth.\u00a0 This one is by Mike, and I can just imagine him reading it to me, his voice deep and rhythmic in my ear.<\/p>\n

Come and visit.\u00a0 You might be inspired as well.<\/p>\n
