An August Talk of Muses, Brilliant Insights or Just Plain Crap.

I was texting my friend and thought I'd share what I shared with them as the thought amuses me.
I am going to be open and honest here and perhaps a little comical as well so take these next words with the proper grains of salt, as the old adage goes.

     "The real problem with me and writing is that the muses that guide my writing will at times oft strike me when I long ago should've gone to sleep.  And during these fantastical bouts wherein I produce a great amount of work in the area of writing a chapter or story I believe, in the moment mind you, that every word I just wrote or typed down is golden and the manna of the Gods. Then after I have finished up the scene or chapter or story or whatever it is I am writing, I go to bed and get a well deserved sleep confident that I have written pure genius upon the page.  However, when I awake and return to what I have written I usually have only a single and simple thought as I look over my work of genius the night before, namely, What the fact is this shit?!  Damn it, I need to start over from scene one.

    However this doesn't always happen when I am struck by the I should be sleeping muse.  Sometimes I write a lot of great stuff when that particular muse shows up, but more often then not, it is crap and I am too tired to realize it, and I have to start over.  But there is a good thing.  Sometimes if I don't know the direction I wanted to go, though he has taken me down the wrong road so to speak, he has at least left me several sign posts to continue onward."

Well not much more to say on this particular subject so I'll end it here for know.
