The Writers Lounge has a Muse

The Writers Lounge has a Muse! How do I know? Yesterday she would not leave me alone. She first appeared in the afternoon while I was writing at the beach. Yes, I do that at least once a week- at special spots where the Ocean Muses come to shore. Now the Writers Lounge - a global space created by writers around the world has a Muse too. Will I ever get any rest? Not likely now!

In the evening she had me sitting at the computer creating fourteen days of writing sparks. She wants us to keep writing. In fact she thinks the holiday season is one of the best times to write. Why? Most of us have time away from our ordinary routines. She loves that! She says ordinary life does not have enough fire in it. We ignore her sparks. We are not listening. We cover up our creative embers with chores. Also - many people feel sad or lonely during the holiday season - even when they are spending time with loved ones.  There is a collective longing in the air - a desire for connection and  belonging. The Muse from the Writers Lounge tells me we long to feel our own Creative Flow. We miss our Selves she says - and she has a cure. Get Creative! Get Writing!

I've just learned that everyone who registers for the Special Event "Write Your Life for 2010" happening December 29th will get a gift from the Muse of the Writers Lounge - Fourteen days of Writing Sparks. I just have to figure out the technical stuff to deliver  a Writing Spark each day for fourteen days to our email boxes. I'm working on that right now. I have a feeling the Muse from the Writers Lounge is going to be keeping us all very busy doing what we love- writing.
