Wanted: One Muse

You should keep a regular schedule, not visit with your pouch of creative glitter at three in the morning, and then spend a week sipping margaritas on some tropical shore while I stab pens through paper in fruitless attempts to find coherence.
You should be funny, but laughing only with me and never at me. You should be prepared to offer mugs of hot coffee or glasses of cold tea, as necessary, and you should be certain never to let me feel discouraged, even when I write something that patently sucks.
You should be maternal, cajoling and nagging, but also cheering me on, loudly.
Oh, right, and you shouldn’t cost me a cent.
