A kick in the ass

Here's the initial plan: write lots.  There is a expression in sailing, "if you can't tie knots, tie lots". In sailing, it is important to tie things down (anchor lines, sheets, booms, you name it) so that in rocky weather things don't fly around go, hit people in the head, or over board.  The right knot for the right circumstance is best.  But failing knowing how to tie knots, it's better to make sure things don't come loose, so--ties lots.  I hope it applies to writing, since I am a bit lacking with the skills of writing.

The goal is to use this blog as a way to spur on some daily writing adventures. To encourage this writing lots goal, we are employing guilt and competition by having it a joint blog, hence the title: Good Muse Bad Muse.  I'm not sure if it's more a Good News-Bad News kind of thing or a Good Cop-Bad Cop kind of thing.  The bottom line is, I will probably be associated with the Bad.  Only time will tell.

Let the blog begin...
