  1. Very well Symph. SAT? You have the same thing in your country? Or are you trying to come to a US university? Don't worry about the muse. You have studies to do now.
  2. I'm as wonderful as always thanks! Going through a busy time... SAT studies, plus my own students, plus me applying abroad for studies... And no Muse!!
    Hows it going with you?
  3. Hey there young lady. Hope you are well.
  4. thats an idea... hmm gotta check if that works. you're right, you have to run after her at times too... i'm just not used to the running after i guess!
  5. Well, here's a trick. Open a book of poetry, anything in particular. Find a sentence in the middle of a poem and write it out. Now take that sentence structure and start replacing the nouns with nouns that fit some of your thoughts. Look at it and see if there is something in there that could become a poem. When the muse doesn't come on to you, you have to go and run after her. You need to develop word/poetry games to find things to inspire you. It doesn't always drop from the sky.
  6. the general public (litnetters)!
    here we are, three unfortunates looking for her. the last time I saw her she was wearing the muslin layers of cloud 9 and was starry eyed.
  7. Hey that's a great idea. We should get it into the monthly newsletter. Who do we tell?
  8. ah i think we all are in the same boat looking for the missing Muse! do you think we should make a missing report for her in the litnet town crier?
  9. I know how you feel. I've been trying to come up with something for the Valentine's Day Poetry contest. I have a couple of thoughts but no way to start the poem. How come Prince doesn't come around often any more? Just a little here and there.
  10. i'm here reporting a missing muse
    well i've been around here, but havent been posting much... didnt have anything to post, to be more exact!
