Economic Muse

I missed out on a submission for a very interesting short story collection. I even had a plot line developed. There was just too much going on last month, and I missed out. Too bad, because the selected stories paid well too. I watched "The Muse" the other day on TV, and joked with hubby that my muse was a fickle goddess, and kind of low-budget as well. I guess, compared to the muse in the movie, I'm lucky mine is more aware of the economy.
