“Most people assume that a muse is a creature of perfect beauty, poise and grace. Like the creatures from Greek mythology. They're wrong. In fact, there should be a marked absence of perfection in a muse--a gaping hole between what she is and what she might be. The ideal muse is a woman whose rough edges and contradictions drive you to fill in the blanks of her character. She is the irritant to your creativity. A remarkable possibility, waiting to be formed.” PeopleShouldCharacterFactsMightWaitingPerfectCreativityGracePossibilityCreaturesIdealsPerfectionAssumingEdgesAbsenceMythologyHolesGreekContradictionRemarkableRoughMuseGreek MythologyPoiseGreek MythIrritantsRough EdgesPerfect Beauty Author:Kathleen Tessaro
