Perhaps it’s time, I muse, to close those chapters and remember the enduring lesson of my entrapment: that relationships, not accomplishments, are what’s important in life Picture Quote #1

The muse holds no appointments. You can never call on it. I don’t understand people who get up at 9 o’clock in the morning, put on the coffee and sit down to write Picture Quote #1

She went from opera, park, assembly, play, To morning walks, and prayers three hours a day. To part her time ‘twixt reading and bohea, To muse, and spill her solitary tea, Or o’er cold coffee trifle with the spoon, Count the slow clock, and dine exact at noon Picture Quote #1

When The Daily Muse initially wanted to launch a job board, our first ideas were insanely (and needlessly) complex.

Edgar Degas’s famous sculpture, ‘Little Dancer Aged Fourteen,’ served as my muse for ‘The Painted Girls.’ I came upon a television documentary on the work, and as someone who held the sculpture in high esteem and who largely considered ballet to be the high-minded pursuit of privileged young girls, I was struck by what I would learn Picture Quote #1

Tell me, O Muse, of that ingenious hero who travelled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy Picture Quote #1

I’m not sure why my muse is female, except when I am deliberately playing against that figure Picture Quote #1

A ratio of failures is built into the process of writing. The wastebasket has evolved for a reason. Think of it as the altar of the Muse Oblivion, to whom you sacrifice your botched first drafts, the tokens of your human imperfection Picture Quote #1

Good old-fashioned, puritanical work guilt is, for me, a better colleague than any Muse. If I reach my weekly word target by Friday afternoon, then the weekend is guilt-free Picture Quote #1

I learned to produce whether I wanted to or not. It would be easy to say oh, I have writer’s block, oh, I have to wait for my muse. I don’t. Chain that muse to your desk and get the job done Picture Quote #1
