I know it’s not the best title for a post but it is what happened on Wednesday. I went out shopping with mom to get some necessities and found a gem.

No not literally a gem. It was while we were at Hobby Lobby that I found the unexpected treasure. I was looking around in the frame department and then meandered over to the bins where the prints and photos for sale are stocked. A picture of a faery child  in a boat reaching out to pick up a Lilly from the water caught my eye.

I picked it up and put it in the cart. I took me a few minutes to realize why I really wanted to purchase it. It looks like the main character from a short story I am working on. In one scene she is in a small boat on a pond and is picking up a water-lily from the water. Just like the picture.

I figured my muse was giving me a physical gift of the story to inspire me to get on with it again. Maybe not exactly a gift since I had to purchase it  – lol.  I smile when I look at it and can definitely ‘see’ what is to come in the story.

And here I thought I was just going out to buy necessities that I knew I needed.  Thank you muse, I am listening.

Write on and on and forever on.
