Or, What to Do When the Muses Barge in at the Wrong Time | Elizabeth Gilbert believes that ideas are magical beings looking for a human partner to bring them to life. But what if they come knocking when you're in the middle of dinner?
Oh yes - all so true! I keep a little book - with a picture of a fox on the cover - in my purse to jot down those thoughts. When I look through them I can pick and choose what ideas will make their way into a book I'm working on. Sometimes the ideas are met with approval, and sometimes I wonder what kind of drug my muse was on when she whispered it into my ear.
