Originally posted by Whytewytch View PostI've thought about getting my MFA--I have a BA in English from the finest state university Connecticut had to offer at the time; however, I'm not one of those people who can run a business, get a side career in writing going, take care of two active boys and a hubby and a house, and get a degree all at once. If I do it, it'll have to wait until the kids are gone. As it is right now, I'm taking one course at a time on Savvy Authors and--even though they're not all that difficult or time-consuming usually--I sometimes find myself falling behind or dropping out entirely.
In the mean time, writing courses one-at-a-time sound like a great idea! Have you looked into any of Holly Lisle's stuff? One of the gal's in my old online Spuffy writer's group swore by her stuff. I've never tried it, but my friend really felt like it improved her writing.

Holly is actually a member at Savvy, also. I've seen her name around but have yet to take one of her courses. Thanks for the link!sigpicSig by Bay, for my birthday.

Why..? Oh why...? Why didn't I come into this thread yesterday when I was at home?
I have no excuses. Really... I have no excuses.
I promise to put the article up. You have my word. So watch the thread.
And here's a thought. Is it possible to have more than one muse?
It appears that I have two. A Fanfic muse who is currently MIA and a non Sci-fi muse who is pestering me to write a non sci-fi peice."What do you mean by 'Oopps'?"

Also, never try to do otherwise of what your muse wants for you to write. If you have a muse wanting a none scifi piece, WRITE IT, perhaps afterwards your normal muse will return from vacation

Although I am at work. It feels as if my non Sci-fi muse is looking over my shoulder. Gently nudging me. But I don't think that she realises that I have to work...
But if Cassie, I've given her a name , wants a non sci-fi piece... Then I suppose Cassie will get a non sci-fi piece. I'll have to name my other muse now. It's only fair.
*Thinks* <OUCH!> I suppose I could call her Rebecca, Bex for short."What do you mean by 'Oopps'?"

As I've written above. My muses are called Cassandra ( Cassie ) and Rebecca ( Bex ).
Named after my favourite character in the original Battlestar Galactica and after a character in a story I've got planned."What do you mean by 'Oopps'?"

My muse and I aren't all that close at the moment. Bit of a strained relationship at the moment - might be all the transatlantic flights I make her do since I think she's elected to spend most of her time in the States.
As for the other kind of MUSE, can't say I like their Olympic song much.And now it's time for one last bow, like all your other selves. Eleven's hour is over now... the clock is striking Twelve's.

I have to admit to not hearing the Olympic song by MUSE. I take it that it is not up to much?"What do you mean by 'Oopps'?"

My muse doesn't have a name, at least as far as I know. I simply refer to her as "Mme. Muse".Sum, ergo scribo...
