Dangerous Muses

I have a few dangerous muses. Their names are Sara and Courtney with a semi-dangerous one in Lisa. How are they dangerous?

1. Death by laughter - They can have you dying laughing in no time. When I finish writing a chapter, they begin demanding more and threatening me.

2. Honesty - They are honest with me in all manners. This means they will tell me things suck or if I'm going down the wrong path. This is dangerous because it might have me rewriting sections. Good, but....

3. Idea generators - These muses are notorious for helping me think of twists and turns in my stories. This is dangerous because I have to rewrite sections and these ideas spin out of control into even more chapters and even more books. I have an idea notebook with more book ideas than I can write in a lifetime!

In all honesty, I have to thank my muses. They pull me out of my writing funks and inspire me. Which is why today I'm finishing up Trust Me.
