teddy_radiatorI was just brewing my coffee this morning - oh, who am I kidding - I was just popping a pod into the beloved Keurig, silently apologising to Irishredlass for being the coffee Philistine that I am, when 'bam!' the Muse gave me the entire rest of Lay Me Low. it all rushed into my head like it had been fuel-injected.
I knew the direction I wanted the story to take, but there was something in the back of my mind, a little niggling feeling that I was missing something - so there I am, yawning, scratching my stomach, waffling between the Timothy Horton's Winter Carnival or the Dark Roast Hazelnut, and there it was. Beautifully wrapped up and tied with a little, neat bow of green and silver. The one plot point that would sum up the entire story, give everyone's motivations justification and notch up the drama to boiling point.
It also didn't hurt that yesterday, Sempra, my visual Muse, drew one of the most devastatingly beautiful works of art I've ever seen based on the fic. AND is sending me the signed original. That made me sleep like a baby last night, and now the way ahead is smooth and clear. I have the best friends.
So, you see, Irishredlass, pod coffee has its benefits. It makes my Muse very excited, apparently. I will think of you fondly every time I reach for the Caribou medium roast. And I hope you have a safe trip and that you and Droxy make some really, really cool stuff this week.
