The Muse

Musing on the Muse...not female for me and no sweet creature with wings, no, rather a demanding devil with a whip and chain. Can't tell you the number of times I've given up sleep or food or other necessities to heed his call.

Treading the thin line between obsession and addiction with writing...

"If you are not afraid of the voices inside you, you will not fear the critics outside you. Besides, those voices are merely guardians and demons protecting the real treasure, the first thoughts of the mind." from Writing Down the Bones, by Natalie Goldberg

Natalie Goldberg has her own web site. Take a look to see the way another writer promotes herself.
