Bringing back the Muse


It's been forever since I've posted a muse avatar. Some of you haven't forgiven me - and I have a feeling this picture of Kiefer Sutherland / Jack Bauer won't win back your love, either.

I know, he's kind of an acquired taste.

But it's my blog and I'll upload him if I want to, upload him if I want to...

Whoops. Sorry about that. I've got about 25 songs wormed into my brain after a marathon script writing session with the awesome Judith Graves.

Despite the lack of muse avatar, I have been writing. Lots, actually. With more than 10 projects on the go - yes, 10 - there's always something for me to do. And, yes mom, I do know, that taking on too many projects often lends itself to failure.

Unless you have Kiefer Sutherland in your back pocket - which I do.

As Jack Bauer, Kiefer is bad ass. He doesn't take crap - from anyone. He's focussed. Annoyed by stupid, petty people, and infamous for pissing people off in his wake. But at the end of the 24-hour day, stuff gets done. Jack has redeemed himself as a hero, he gets the girl (just before she dies / turns psycho), and he's restored faith in The People. Go Jack!

This week, my friends, I'm in need of a hero like Jack.

The script in all is awesome glory may be done, but it's just one project completed on deadline (ahead of deadline, actually...huh...) and the bigger one - the thriller - remains half done.

Unacceptable.

If Jack were here right now, we'd be in b he'd be yelling at me to get my ass in gear.

So here goes. The return of Muse Avatar Monday - and Jack. Now go forth and inspire some bad ass writing...

Happy Monday. I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend.

- Dawn
