That woman! L. Timmel Duchamp on the Muse

L. Timmel Duchamp is one of those rare over-educated people whose writing makes me have at hand both a dictionary and a box of tissues, sometimes for cleaning up unladylike snorts. (see her story The Apprenticeship of Isabetta di Pietro Cavazzi that I was delighted to include in the Virtuous Medlar Circle)

The ever-stimulating Timmi — author, publisher, essayist —has been thinking about 'the whole Muse thing', and that led to what she calls 'serendipity' (probably a Muse's curse).

First she had

'A Brief Conversation with Nisi Shawl'

and then

a conversation with me.
