...iPods really suck, you know?
"Do you want to post this not-finished review?"
"NO!"
"Okay!"

...And now I can't find my review. Crap.

Ah well. Trust the memory.

Takeshi: my art muse. The quiet one. Specializes in fluff, hurt-comfort, some brands of angst, and, of course, art.
Caius: my...um...I don't know what he is. He just annoys me. Likes blueberries and dialogue.

That's mostly it...though basically, all of my OCs are my muses...

Gahaha...nice...

My muses:
Saige: my all-around fanfic muse. She's the crazy one. Specializes in humor, crack-fics, and parodies, but is extremely good with death scenes.
Avi: my original book-muse. He's the sarcastic one. Specializes in angst, pain, and powerful breakthrough moments.
Takeshi: my art muse. He's the quiet one. Specializes in hurt-comfort fluff, ultra

Okay, this is by far one of the most helpful things I've read on this site. But I have a question. See, I don't have a muse, and I've been suffering from a bad case of writers block on and off for the past year or so. So I would indeed like to have a muse. I would like to know, where is the Muse Employment Agency? Or, rather, where can I find it? Also, how should I go about employing the muse? It would be very much appreciated if you could reply. Thank you for writing this.

I rarely come on this website, mostly because the sister site, , keeps me busy enough. However, I did notice this story and it gave me a laugh.

It's true enough about Muses, they are fickle creatures regardless who they are or how they came into being. I'm lucky enough to maintain my three bickering muses (Representing Insanity, Fury, and Destruction). I guess they would be labeled as Official?

The story is entertaining, especially to those who understand how hard it is to write good stories and the importance of a good Muse. You're appealing to the author side instead of the reader side. Very good. I haven't seen many spelling or grammar errors, which are always a plus.

Again, wonderful interpretation on Muses. Have a nice day.

Oh dear, this sounds too familiar !

I think I've got three muses, all OC- Darkrain, the one who keeps me on task and is the cynical and realistic one, but can also generate humor (or criticize it...); Talia, the more easy-going and humorous one that gives me general ideas, and keeps me sane when I'm close to deadline; and Shirracco, defenitely the one who pushes me to have the most fun with my story and just try things to see how they work out. But Darkrain's still head honcho...tee hee...he can communicate telepathically, sleep on my futon while I'm gone from the house, and still have an outline ready at the end of the day...

Wow, anyway, another great article.

Hey...I have some muses:

Brock (for humor, Pokemon, unofficial, who else can make me shake my head and say, "Poor you. You can never catch a girl")

Cordelia (for angst, Angel and BtVS, unofficial, her death made me cry buckets of tears)

My OC, Dianne (for anything, mine, unofficial, she's Ash's gal)

Danny (for romance, Danny Phantom, unofficial, he's best friends with the girl he likes and they become GF/BF)

Kim (for serious, Kim Possible, unofficial, she's usually concentrated on things)

They're all unofficial.

Dianne: Wait. Why didn't you get Ash? You're comfortable with him.

You like him, girl.

Beth: She is SO right. Oh, see me over at Haunted soon as the Crazies debut!

*applauds* Love this, and my muses think you're wonderful for writing it! Onto my favourites it marches...

I wonder what category Partouf would go under. . .
Any ideas?
He's a . . .samll elephant, of the grey variety, and he's from Astralis. He likes it here because the sweaters are nice. Don't ask why. He's been very cynical lately, but he's usually quite nice.
Any help in this department?

*stands and applauds*

EXCELLENT, MAZE! WHO!

Thank you for that in-depth look at muses. Now I know where to put Torgo... mehehehehe!

*Haunting Torgo Theme ensues*

Adios!

-Beads

Yeah, my muses are both official and quite original. I've had Darian for about two and a half years now. He can't read my mind normally, just reads my journals, but we fuse during my writing period. My most recent Muse, Akira, is very short so she can fly around. She can read my mind more easily, but at least she can be trusted as she has a more... herm.. noble way of doing things.

Darian- Helo, ladies!\

Sigh. -_- Be glad of an official Muse from a series, TA-san.

Anyway, very informative essay here on Muses. It's certainly something to refer back to once in a while! Thanks for writing it! *thumbs up*

- This is really cool, and super-helpful! - Thank you so much for writing it! Hmmm, maybe I'll get a muse sometime... ,~

Ooooo...*pokes* I think I need a muse sicne I'm suffereing an evil writters block heh heh. Off to the muse employment agency! Mwahaha! Thanks you!

Threshie: WAIWAIWAI! This is perfect! I'm gonna print it and keep a copy handy! .

Rufus (Threshie's Muse): Great. Now she's going to stick that MRA part in my face whenever I backtalk. *Crosses arms and frowns*

Threshie: ;; Aww, c'mon, Rufie! I've been writing about you a lot lately!

Rufus: Yeah-in scenes where I know I'll die in a month.

Threshie: ;; You'll find a cure! Besides, I needed a way for you to finally marry Mindee-and tell her you're friends with Jonithan!

Rufus: ...True. But it's still agonizing-Mindee's getting upset and crying and everything, and since I'm going to die in the fic, there isn't a damned thing I can say to make her feel better!

Threshie: *Pats Rufie's head* Maa, maa, Rufie, everything'll turn out all right. . I wouldn't kill off one of my absolute favorite OCs, nor one half of one of my absolute favorite OC couples!

Rufus: Right... *Sighs* If you say so, Threshie-sama.

Threshie: Without further ado, great and wondrous work which i shall use as a reference when dealing with Muses in the future! I didn't know I could legally have more than one... *Glances at Rufie* Hmmmz... he's so serious-I need a humor Muse. Maybe his twin, Tom? Hm, or maybe Lylor...Aha! *Snaps fingers* Jezzur!

Rufus: -_-;; We'd better end this review, don't you think?

Threshie: Oh! ;; yeah, you're right. Thanks for this masterpiece, TA-sama! Ja! V PS: to the Favorites List this goes! ~ And you, too! I don't know why I never added you 'til now!

oh oh oh thank you for explaining the muse thing to me, I was really confused every time I read something on a muse I just kinda smiled and continued reading... lol I really didnt understand it *sighs* and Ive been avoiding asking some one they might of thought I was weird...lol

wow! now i'm inspired to go to the muse employment agency and pick up a few muses of my own!

caio! _# (chichiri smiling without his mask! yayy!)
