Moon Day or Musings on a Monday

Today is a fascinating day for me. I find that becoming energized can change my creativity and thus my productivity.

Why I got caught up with the concept of time and was taken off my main path for a little journey has to do with the daily morning news I do every day for my friends.

Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It is already tomorrow in Australia.

Then I realized my column for Solitaire was due on June 6. Well it is June 6th but my editor is in Singapore where it is June 7th so I am a day late but in my world I am right on time. Time stands still for no writer it seems. So I had to abuse my muse and get in the modus creativus. How say thee, can it be done so quickly. I call and talk to my sister. Of course, I call and talk to my sister every morning at 8:30 am so in effect she is my co-muse. After playing word games for half an hour with the speaker phone on as I typed I quit abusing her and went back to work.

To avoid creationism interruptus in the future, I wrote my columns through October. What a taskmaster is my monkey muse. Teasing me with dreams of fame and royalty checks. Seducing me with a bunch of ripe coconuts waiting to be cracked and filled with the elixir of authorian angst.

And now, another creationist interuptus hunger calls and my husband bellows from the other room: What's for Lunch!!!! Like not caring what it is as long as I prepare it. Such is the life of Myriam and her muse.

Till next time...

Love and write on.
