Flogging the Muse
After much consideration, I, Melpomene the Muse of Tragedy, do hereby decree that author Jeannie Holmes may suspend final revisions for the creative work titled CRIMSON SWAN for a period of no less than and no more than eight (8) hours for the sole purpose of sleeping. Once said period has passed author Jeannie Holmes must return to her place of inspiration and/or punishment until such time as final revisions for the creative work titled CRIMSON SWAN are complete and have been returned to Ms. Editor for proper vetting.
