Inspiration (or is there a muse?)
Yes. And no. What there is, is this wonderful awesome thing in your head called a brain. There was a reason in Greek mythology as to why Mnemosyne (nem-o-seen) was the mother of the muses.

The Society of Editors (WA) Inc's new website is up!
I volunteer a lot. I happen to volunteer part of my time being a) Membership Officer b) Writing WA Representative and c) Website Coordinator/Administrator for the Society of Editors (WA) Inc. It tires me out but I love it. As the web admin, I have been setting up forums, and updating the website, register and checking the mailing list. The website wasn’t really working well though so I suggested putting up a weblog. We (meaning I, mostly) delayed for a few months, making all the small decisions (what will it look like? etc) but now it is finally up. Updating is now easier for me, and if I step down…
